MEX to TIJ questions

Morning or evening flight on MEX–TIJ?

Operators schedule evening departures around 18:20 from MEX. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the TIJ delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.

How long is the flight from MEX to TIJ?

Great-circle distance is 2,301 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 192–227 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does MEX–TIJ fly?

2 carriers operate this route, around 42 flights a week between them. Compare carrier days and times in the airline list above.

What does the route health score measure?

A blend of departure-side delay at MEX and arrival-side delay at TIJ, 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.
