CGN to CAI questions
How long is the flight from CGN to CAI?
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 CGN–CAI 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 CGN and arrival-side delay at CAI, 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.
