YIP to ORD questions
Is YIP–ORD running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. The arrival side at ORD is the weaker end, route health score 90/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How often does YIP–ORD fly?
United Airlines runs the route with about 1 flight a week (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 YIP and arrival-side delay at ORD, 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.
