LLW to JNB questions

Is LLW–JNB running on time right now?

Mostly on schedule. Both endpoints currently score the same, route health score 76/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from LLW to JNB?

Great-circle distance is 1,489 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 135–158 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does LLW–JNB fly?

Airlink runs the route with about 5 flights a week (sun, mon, 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 LLW and arrival-side delay at JNB, 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.
