Airlines Serving BNE

Outlook

Over the next 4–8 weeks, schedules at the hub should remain broadly stable with departure OTP near the mid‑70s; afternoon showers and school‑holiday weekend peaks could still trigger pockets of delay. Passengers should book morning departures, allow 60–90 minutes of buffer for security and connections on busy days, and monitor real‑time gate and weather alerts via the NextFly App.
