DUD to WLG questions

How long is the flight from DUD to WLG?

Great-circle distance is 632 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 75–84 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does DUD–WLG fly?

Air New Zealand runs the route with about 16 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 WLG, 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.
