How the Addis Ababa to Lusaka route actually runs
Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop ADD to LUN flights through the day: schedules, estimates, gate pushes and actual departures. The verdict above comes from operated flights, so it reflects what this route does rather than what the timetable promises.

ADD to LUN questions
Morning or evening flight on ADD–LUN?
Operators schedule morning departures around 09:25 and evening departures around 22:10 from ADD. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the LUN delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from ADD to LUN?
Great-circle distance is 2,934 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 237–281 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does ADD–LUN fly?
Ethiopian Airlines runs the route with about 8 flights a week (sun, tue, thu, fri, sat). 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 ADD and arrival-side delay at LUN, 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.
