How the Brussels to Cairo route actually runs
Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop BRU to CAI 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.

BRU to CAI questions
Is BRU–CAI running on time right now?
Mostly on schedule. The departure side at BRU is the weaker end, route health score 78/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from BRU to CAI?
Great-circle distance is 3,209 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 257–305 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does BRU–CAI fly?
EgyptAir runs the route with about 5 flights a week (sun, mon, 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 BRU and arrival-side delay at CAI, 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.
