MS911 route overview: CAI to JED

MS911 distance and great-circle path

MS911 covers 1,217 km, or 756 miles. That makes it a short-haul flight, a single-aisle hop where turnaround time matters more than range. Of the 439 routes we track, it ranks 370 by distance.

The plane leaves Cairo heading south-east. On the map above, the line looks curved. That is normal. The shortest path over a round planet never looks straight on a flat screen. Our guide explains how the CAI-JED route appears on a tracker map.

Why MS911 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 2.2 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 541 km/h. A Boeing 777-300ER cruises faster than that. The gap is taxi time, climbing, descending and holding.

Winds aloft shift the real flight time by up to an hour in either direction. See what really moves flight times.

Can the Boeing 777-300ER comfortably fly MS911?

Not at all. At roughly 9% of its range, this is an easy trip for a Boeing 777-300ER. The airline picked it for cabin size, not distance. The full numbers are on our aircraft page for the Boeing 777-300ER.

What to know about MS911

  • Time change: none. Both cities keep the same clock, so arrival time reads exactly as you expect.

MS911 activity in the past 7 days

Our database contains 8 observations of MS911 across 8 UTC dates in this window, most recently 2026-10-29. Those records contain 7 distinct transponder addresses.

The median recorded visibility was 69 minutes. That is time inside receiver coverage, not airborne duration or an on-time-performance measurement.

How much CO2 does MS911 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Boeing 777-300ER, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown1,217 km
AircraftBoeing 777-300ER
Fuel burn rate8.86 kg per km
Fuel burned10,781 kg
CO2, whole flight34.1 tonnes
Seats, typical layout365
Passengers carried303 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger112 kg

Where that lands by cabin

The aircraft burns the same fuel whoever is aboard, so the cabins divide one total rather than each carrying their own. A seat's share is the floor it takes up, which is why an economy seat comes out below the 112 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy299 seats, 248 flown
82 kg CO2 per seat
Business55 seats, 46 flown
237 kg CO2 per seat
First11 seats, 9 flown
326 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, MS911 emits what 568 trees take back out of the air in a year. One economy seat on it accounts for about the same carbon dioxide as driving a petrol car 661 km, or 3,213 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at sectors of 10,199 km, 11,112 km and 13,334 km, all longer than this route, so the closest is held flat and the real figure is likely a little higher. It counts carbon dioxide only, and the cabin split assumes the layout typical of this size of aircraft. Read the full method, sources and caveats, or put MS911 against another flight.
