How the Cairo to Kinshasa route actually runs
Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop CAI to FIH flights through the day: schedules, estimates, gate pushes and actual departures. The verdict above comes from operated flights, so it reflects what this route does rather than what the timetable promises.

CAI to FIH questions
Morning or evening flight on CAI–FIH?
Operators schedule evening departures around 18:00 from CAI. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the FIH delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from CAI to FIH?
Great-circle distance is 4,196 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 326–390 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does CAI–FIH fly?
EgyptAir runs the route with about 3 flights a week (tue, wed, fri). 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 FIH, 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.
