What our measurement shows at ORF
That daily average is measured, not scheduled: it comes from our own reception measurement at Norfolk over 30 days, and it describes what we recorded rather than a published timetable. Within our data it corresponds to a moderate traffic level, while the airport itself is listed in the large airport size class in our database. Both labels apply at the same time: the size class describes the airport, the traffic level describes the 5.7 movements a day we recorded.
The busiest window in our 30-day measurement fell between 14:00 and 16:00. One caveat before you plan around those hours: our measurement clock runs in UTC, so translate the window to Norfolk local time first. With that conversion made, it tells you when the radar on this page tends to fill up fastest on an ordinary day.
American Airlines and Delta at Norfolk
American Airlines is the carrier we recorded most often at ORF, with 16 movements in our 30-day window. Delta Air Lines follows with 10 movements over the same period. Both counts come from our own reception measurement, so they describe what we actually recorded at Norfolk, not a published timetable. American and Delta are the only two carriers in our package for ORF, which keeps the airline side of this page short. If you are waiting on a specific flight with either carrier, the airline page is the next place to look: American Airlines flight status or Delta flight status.
