CPH to AUH questions

Is CPH–AUH running on time right now?

Some delays possible. The arrival side at AUH is the weaker end, route health score 63/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from CPH to AUH?

Great-circle distance is 4,855 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 373–446 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does CPH–AUH fly?

Etihad Airways runs the route with about 4 flights a week (sun, tue, wed, fri). 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 CPH and arrival-side delay at AUH, 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.
