KWI to BEY questions

Is KWI–BEY running on time right now?

Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at KWI is the weaker end, route health score 88/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from KWI to BEY?

Great-circle distance is 1,287 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 121–140 min gate-to-gate on this route.

What does the route health score measure?

A blend of departure-side delay at KWI and arrival-side delay at BEY, 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.
