GRR to MKE questions

Is GRR–MKE running on time right now?

Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at GRR is the weaker end, route health score 94/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from GRR to MKE?

Great-circle distance is 193 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 44–47 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does GRR–MKE fly?

United Airlines runs the route with about 1 flight a week (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 GRR and arrival-side delay at MKE, 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.
