I am always very impressed with the amount of coverage you guys can produce, but it always seems to me that whenever i fly in Europe the coverage is only about average. But times like right now (2051Z) Europe is PACKED with pilots and controllers.

 

So for my Euro planning purposes, when are the usual or average "rush" hours in Europe?

 

Thanks in Advance!

From what I've seen, around 18-23z and especially whole day Friday, Saturday and Sunday and especially on those days around those hours.

Controllers have feelings too...

In the evening, from 1830z to 2130z more or less If you are planning a flight, you can also check what ATC are scheduled so that you can be sure they will be open
