How JQ288 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for JQ288 across the CHC and WLG boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: departed -11 min. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how JQ288 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
