What MAN to EIN looks like
The MAN to EIN sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Manchester MAN to Eindhoven EIN is a short sector of 560 km by great circle, flown nonstop 3 times a week.
At the cruise speed this site models for 560 km, 720 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 1h 19m.
Manchester MAN is a major hub in the network held here, 203 scheduled destinations and 374.8 departures a day. Eindhoven EIN has 74 destinations and 72.4 departures a day.
Manchester carries about 5.2 times the departures of Eindhoven, so a courier who has to be rebooked has far more to work with at one end of this pair than at the other.
Eindhoven is one hour ahead of Manchester all year.
The pair sits inside Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 14 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.

| At MAN before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |

When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 48 of them join MAN to EIN.
| Connecting at | MAN to hub, flights a day | Hub to EIN, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Copenhagen CPH | 5.14 | 0.57 | 1,662 | 4h 30m |
| Prague PRG | 2.43 | 0.71 | 1,834 | 4h 43m |
| Bilbao BIO | 1 | 0.57 | 2,218 | 4h 50m |
| Bergamo BGY | 2 | 1.71 | 1,929 | 4h 51m |
| Gdansk GDN | 1 | 1.14 | 2,295 | 4h 56m |
| Nice NCE | 1.57 | 0.71 | 2,160 | 5h 00m |
48 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Copenhagen CPH, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 4 times a week.
Through CPH the routing covers 1,662 km against the 560 km nonstop track and takes about 4h 30m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 75 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is 3h 11m more than the nonstop, which is the price of a missed departure on this pair.
Behind it, Prague PRG at 4h 43m and Bilbao BIO at 4h 50m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for MAN to EIN in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
