FR666 distance and great-circle path
FR666 covers 803 km, or 499 miles. That makes it a short-haul flight, a single-aisle hop where turnaround time matters more than range. Of the 255 routes we track, it ranks 235 by distance.
The plane leaves Charleroi heading north-west. 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 CRL–DUB route appears on a tracker map.
Why FR666 block time differs from cruise time
The schedule allows 1.9 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 419 km/h. A Boeing 737-800 cruises faster than that. The gap is taxi time, climbing, descending and holding.
Flying west, this route pushes against the wind. The trip back east is usually shorter, even though the distance is the same. See what really moves flight times.
