How CA556 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for CA556 across the BKK and PEK boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: landed +11 min. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how CA556 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
