GIG to NAT questions
Morning or evening flight on GIG–NAT?
Operators schedule morning departures around 08:15 and evening departures around 23:15 from GIG. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the NAT delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from GIG to NAT?
Great-circle distance is 2,075 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 176–208 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does GIG–NAT fly?
Gol Transportes Aéreos runs the route with about 15 flights a week (daily). 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 GIG and arrival-side delay at NAT, 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.
