Passenger figures count both directions together — Adelaide to Hobart and back. The published statistics do not separate them. Cancellations, punctuality and flight numbers above are for Adelaide to Hobart only.
How long is the flight?
Scheduled flight time from Adelaide to Hobart is 1h 50m gate to gate, over 1,172 km. The return leg is scheduled at 2h — the two directions differ by 10m, so this way round is the quicker one.
This is scheduled block time — from leaving the gate to reaching it at the other end — not time in the air, and not a substitute for checking your own booking. It is a median across the flights currently timetabled on this leg.
