How the Dunedin to Christchurch route actually runs
Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop DUD to CHC 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.

DUD to CHC questions
Is DUD–CHC running on time right now?
Mostly on schedule. The arrival side at CHC is the weaker end, route health score 70/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from DUD to CHC?
Great-circle distance is 328 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 53–58 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does DUD–CHC fly?
Air New Zealand runs the route with about 37 flights a week (daily). 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 DUD and arrival-side delay at CHC, 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.
