How the Ürümqi to Kuala Lumpur route actually runs

URC to KUL questions
Is URC–KUL running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. Both endpoints currently score the same, route health score 91/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from URC to KUL?
Great-circle distance is 4,787 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 368–440 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does URC–KUL fly?
MALAYSIA AIRLINES BERHAD runs the route with about 2 flights a week (wed, fri). 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 URC and arrival-side delay at KUL, 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.
