CAI to CGN questions

How long is the flight from CAI to CGN?

Great-circle distance is 3,059 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 246–292 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does CAI–CGN fly?

Air Cairo runs the route with about 3 flights a week (sun, tue, thu). 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 CGN, 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.
