W62201 route overview: BUD to LTN

W62201 distance and great-circle path

W62201 covers 1,491 km, or 926 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 213 by distance.

The plane leaves Budapest 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 BUD–LTN route appears on a tracker map.

Why W62201 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 2.6 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 577 km/h. An Airbus A321neo 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.

Can the Airbus A321neo comfortably fly W62201?

Not at all. At roughly 25% of its range, this is an easy trip for an Airbus A321neo. The airline picked it for cabin size, not distance. The full numbers are on our aircraft page for the Airbus A321neo.
