Is HEL–FCO running on time right now?

Significant delay risk. The arrival side at FCO is the weaker end, route health score 44/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

Morning or evening flight on HEL–FCO?

Operators schedule morning departures around 07:20 from HEL. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the FCO delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.

How long is the flight from HEL to FCO?

Great-circle distance is 2,234 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 188–221 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does HEL–FCO fly?

Finnair runs the route with about 14 flights a week (daily). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.
