OMA Omaha

How deep the OMA board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from OMA. This reads the same 109 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound and what the clock here does to a Gulf working day, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 75of the 109 destinations are flown by one airline
• 85destinations run less than once a day
• 8destinations have four or more departures a day
• 23.9%of the destinations name NetJets Aviation, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at OMA

40 airlines appear on the OMA board and they do not hold it evenly. NetJets Aviation is on 26 of the 109 destinations, 23.9 per cent of them, and on 15 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 15.7 of the 108.2 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Silverhawk Aviation on 18 destinations. 20 of the 40 airlines at OMA appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

No airline holds more than 23.9 per cent of the destinations here, which is the more comfortable shape of the two. A cancellation at a spread airport is usually a rebooking rather than a lost day, provided the sector itself carries more than one operator, and 75 of the 109 sectors at OMA do not.

How much of the OMA board is daily

Of the 109 destinations, 24 are flown at least once a day and 85 are not, 50 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the OMA board is flown 2 times a week.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: OMA to White Plains (HPN) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 38.6 of the 108.2 departures a day, 35.6 per cent of the whole board. With 78 per cent of the 109 destinations running less than daily, this is a board that rewards booking the outbound before the collection is confirmed rather than after.

The ten destinations out of OMA where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 59 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from OMA

The desk holds the return direction for 29 of the 109 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On two of them the return into OMA runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gaps are Milwaukee (MKE) at 1 out a day against 0.14 back and Dallas (DAL) at 2.4 out a day against 1.4 back.

It runs the other way as well: Saint Louis (STL) files 3.4 a day back into OMA against 2.1 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at OMA

OMA keeps America/Chicago time, nine hours behind Dubai in summer and ten hours behind in winter, because the clock here moves and the Gulf clock does not.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 00:00 at OMA, and a nine to six day at each end does not overlap at all, so an instruction written in Dubai is read here on the following working day unless somebody is woken up.

Where OMA turns up on the rest of this site

The airport also sits behind the United States country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.

The site publishes 6 airport pair pages that start or end at OMA, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Omaha to Minneapolis (MSP), Omaha to Phoenix (PHX) and Omaha to Chicago (MDW).

Three courier postings name OMA as the airport a courier here flies from: Omaha, Lincoln and Sioux City.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with OMA already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 109 destinations above.
