Arrival time estimator
Turn a scheduled departure, flight duration, and expected delay into an estimated arrival time — including flights that cross midnight.
Estimate arrival
How the estimate works
The estimator adds three numbers on a 24-hour clock: your scheduled departure time, the flight duration in minutes, and the expected delay in minutes. A negative delay means the flight is expected to arrive early, so the tool subtracts those minutes instead.
The interesting case is a late-night departure. A flight leaving at 23:30 with a two-hour duration lands at 01:30 the next day. The tool detects this “midnight crossing” and tells you the arrival is on the following day, so a result like 02:30 is never mistaken for a same-day afternoon time.
Delay minutes here are whatever you expect or have been told — a ground stop, a late inbound aircraft, or weather. Combined with the flight duration, they shift the arrival forward or backward on the clock. The result is an estimate for planning purposes only, not a promise: real arrivals depend on air-traffic control, weather, and how the airline recovers time in the air.
For context on why flights run late and how airlines measure punctuality, see the delay desk, and for on-time rates on specific routes, use the route lookup or the routes table.
