W63001 route overview: OTP to LTN

W63001 distance and great-circle path

W63001 covers 2,106 km, or 1,309 miles. That makes it a medium-haul flight, long enough for a full meal service, short enough for narrowbodies. Of the 439 routes we track, it ranks 316 by distance.

The plane leaves Bucharest 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 OTP-LTN route appears on a tracker map.

Why W63001 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 3.7 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 574 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 W63001?

Not at all. At roughly 28% 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.

How much CO2 does W63001 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Airbus A321neo, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown2,106 km
AircraftAirbus A321neo
Fuel burn rate3.3 kg per km
Fuel burned6,948 kg
CO2, whole flight22.0 tonnes
Seats, typical layout180
Passengers carried149 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger147 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 147 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy158 seats, 131 flown
120 kg CO2 per seat
Business22 seats, 18 flown
348 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, W63001 emits what 366 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 867 km, or 4,210 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at a 1,222 km sector, the only published sector for this type, applied to this route's 2,106 km unadjusted. 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 W63001 against another flight.
