Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop STN to OTP 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.
Some delays possible. The arrival side at OTP is the weaker end, route health score 67/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from STN to OTP?
Great-circle distance is 2,066 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 176–207 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does STN–OTP fly?
Ryanair runs the route with about 26 flights a week (daily). 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 STN and arrival-side delay at OTP, 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.
