DSS to FCO questions

Is DSS–FCO running on time right now?

Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at DSS is the weaker end, route health score 96/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from DSS to FCO?

Great-circle distance is 4,125 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 321–384 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does DSS–FCO fly?

ITA Airways runs the route with about 4 flights a week (sun, wed, fri, sat). 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 DSS and arrival-side delay at FCO, 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.
