How LH981 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for LH981 across the DUB and FRA boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: left noticeably late (~23 min) but landed a little late (~12 min). Not enough to call it.
The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how LH981 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
