If not an maintenance window such as planned for 07.10.2024.:
Oct 8, 07:00 UTC Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed. Oct 7, 23:00 UTC In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary. Oct 7, 22:48 UTC Scheduled - We will be performing scheduled maintenance in BEG (Belgrade) datacenter between 2024-10-07 23:00 and 2024-10-08 07:00 UTC. Traffic might be re-routed from this location, hence there is a possibility of a slight increase in latency during this maintenance window for end-user…
It’s unfortunately due to the ISP peering of the end-users visiting your Website. If you’re on a paid plan, it might get routed through some more priority location, however Vienna, Austria - (VIE) is mostly for and as far as I’ve experienced.
See my case when I switched my ISP:
It could and it should, but actually it doesn’t have to depends on several parameters such as traffic flow, etc. Packet can go through some other country for example if the route is clogged or blocked somehow, or depending on the user’s ISP peering.
The route is picked from the closest and the best one possible for the end-user/visitor of your Website.
Other thing comming to my mind would be some network issues which could be checked at Cloudflare Status page, be it either at Cloudflare end o…
Might have to cross-check with SOX peering matrix for such case, while the end-users can check via example.com/cdn-cgi/trace
to see through which colo they’re connecting to.

Cloudflare is an anycast network, so where you are routed is determined by peering with ISPs. The shortest path geographically isn’t always possible due to peering agreements.
If you request a site hosted on Cloudflare from home:
The domain resolves to a Cloudflare IP
Your browser sends an HTTP request to that IP
Your ISP’s r…
