What our own measurements show at BWI

Alongside the live radar, this page carries our own 30-day reception measurement of traffic at BWI. Over those 30 days, we recorded an average of 16.4 aircraft movements per day at Baltimore/Washington International, the figure behind the moderate traffic level in our data. It is our own measurement, offered as background to the radar rather than as a schedule.

The busiest window in that measurement falls between 01:00 and 03:00 UTC. Our measurement clock runs on UTC, so no local time conversion is applied to that window; convert it to Baltimore local time before you plan around it. Within the 30-day period, that two-hour window is simply when we recorded more movements at BWI than at any other time of day.

Airlines we track at Baltimore/Washington International

Three carriers appear in our 30-day measurement at BWI. Delta Air Lines leads the count with 35 recorded movements, followed by Frontier Airlines with 23 and American Airlines with 14. Those three are the only carriers in our package for Baltimore, and the order runs from Delta at the top to American at the bottom. Each link leads to that airline's own status page on this site; for a specific flight, that page is the next place to look after the BWI arrivals and departures pages.
