MEX to TAP questions
Morning or evening flight on MEX–TAP?
Operators schedule morning departures around 08:25 and evening departures around 19:55 from MEX. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the TAP delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from MEX to TAP?
Great-circle distance is 879 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 92–105 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does MEX–TAP fly?
2 carriers operate this route, around 21 flights a week between them. Compare carrier days and times in the airline list above.
What does the route health score measure?
A blend of departure-side delay at MEX and arrival-side delay at TAP, 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.
