How long is the flight from CUN to LGW?

Great-circle distance is 7,977 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 593–714 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does CUN–LGW fly?

What does the route health score measure?

A blend of departure-side delay at CUN and arrival-side delay at LGW, 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.
