FR1 distance and great-circle path
FR1 covers 1,868 km, or 1,160 miles. That makes it a medium-haul flight, long enough for a full meal service, short enough for narrowbodies. Of the 255 routes we track, it ranks 206 by distance.
The plane leaves Dublin heading south. 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 DUB–AGP route appears on a tracker map.
Why FR1 block time differs from cruise time
The schedule allows 3.1 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 606 km/h. A Boeing 737 MAX 8-200 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.
