A method for predicting a flight arrival time between origin and destination airports. A predicted time delay of a flight departure time of the given aircraft flight from the origin airport is determined 32 by processing a first plurality of features of a set of features using a first predictive model. Then a predicted time duration of the aircraft flight from the origin airport to an entry point of a standard terminal arrival route for the destination airport is determined 34, by processing a second plurality of features of the set of features using a second predictive model. Then a predicted time duration of the given aircraft flight from the entry point of the standard terminal arrival route for the origin airport to landing on a runway of the destination airport is determined 36, by processing a third plurality of features of the set of features using a third predictive model. Finally, the predicted flight arrival time is predicted 38 by adding the predicted time delay to the two aforementioned predicted time durations. Also provided are methods of training predictive models for predicting the time delay (Fig 3), time durations (Figs 4A-B & 5), and an estimated runway configuration of the destination airport (Fig 6).
