PHL to BWI questions

Is PHL–BWI running on time right now?

Significant delay risk. The departure side at PHL is the weaker end, route health score 51/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from PHL to BWI?

Great-circle distance is 145 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 40–42 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does PHL–BWI fly?

2 carriers operate this route, around 3 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 PHL and arrival-side delay at BWI, 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.
