CAI to CAN questions
Is CAI–CAN running on time right now?
Mostly on schedule. Both endpoints currently score the same, route health score 71/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from CAI to CAN?
Great-circle distance is 7,991 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 594–715 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does CAI–CAN fly?
EgyptAir runs the route with about 7 flights a week (daily). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.
What does the route health score measure?
A blend of departure-side delay at CAI and arrival-side delay at CAN, computed from rolling delay windows (refreshed every 40 minutes) with a daily-rollup fallback. Current MVFR, IFR, or LIFR endpoint weather caps the score when flight rules can limit throughput. Higher is healthier: 100 means operations are clean at both ends.
