CIT to BUD questions
Is CIT–BUD running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. The arrival side at BUD is the weaker end, route health score 92/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from CIT to BUD?
Great-circle distance is 3,926 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 307–367 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does CIT–BUD fly?
SCAT Aircompany runs the route with about 3 flights a week (tue, thu, 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 CIT and arrival-side delay at BUD, 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.
