Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop IAD to ACK 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.

Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at IAD is the weaker end, route health score 86/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
Great-circle distance is 679 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 78–88 min gate-to-gate on this route.
A blend of departure-side delay at IAD and arrival-side delay at ACK, 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.
