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 255 routes we track, it ranks 202 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 35% 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.
