How the Omaha to Chicago/Prospect Heights/Wheeling route actually runs

OMA to PWK questions
Is OMA–PWK running on time right now?
Mostly on schedule. The departure side at OMA is the weaker end, route health score 74/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
Morning or evening flight on OMA–PWK?
Operators schedule morning departures around 09:45 from OMA. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the PWK delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How often does OMA–PWK fly?
Jet Linx Aviation runs the route with about 2 flights a week (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 OMA and arrival-side delay at PWK, 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.
