MSP to YXE questions

Is MSP–YXE running on time right now?

Mostly on schedule. The departure side at MSP is the weaker end, route health score 70/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from MSP to YXE?

Great-circle distance is 1,278 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 120–140 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does MSP–YXE fly?

WestJet runs the route with about 3 flights a week (sun, tue, 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 MSP and arrival-side delay at YXE, 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.
