How the Melbourne to Cooma route actually runs
Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop MEL to OOM flights through the day: schedules, estimates, gate pushes and actual departures. The verdict above comes from operated flights, so it reflects what this route does rather than what the timetable promises.

MEL to OOM questions
Is MEL–OOM running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at MEL 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 MEL to OOM?
Great-circle distance is 397 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 58–64 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does MEL–OOM fly?
Qantas Airways runs the route with about 2 flights a week (mon, thu). 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 MEL and arrival-side delay at OOM, 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.
