MAA to ADD questions
Morning or evening flight on MAA–ADD?
Operators schedule morning departures around 02:45 from MAA. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the ADD delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from MAA to ADD?
Great-circle distance is 4,533 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 350–419 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does MAA–ADD fly?
Ethiopian Airlines runs the route with about 4 flights a week (mon, tue, thu, 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 MAA and arrival-side delay at ADD, 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.
