How the Recife to Porto route actually runs
Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop REC to OPO 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.

REC to OPO questions
Is REC–OPO running on time right now?
High disruption likely. The arrival side at OPO is the weaker end, route health score 6/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from REC to OPO?
Great-circle distance is 6,108 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 461–554 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does REC–OPO fly?
AZUL LINHAS AEREAS runs the route with about 2 flights a week (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 REC and arrival-side delay at OPO, 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.
