Delay & cancellation outlook for this flight

Under low visibility at TPE, China Airlines has historically cancelled ~16% of flights, vs 1.9% in clear conditions, over the trailing 90 days.

How CI506 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for CI506 across the PVG and TPE boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left a little late (~18 min) but landed about 10 min early. Not enough to call it.
The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how CI506 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
