AUS to STS questions

Is AUS–STS running on time right now?

Some delays possible. The departure side at AUS is the weaker end, route health score 56/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from AUS to STS?

Great-circle distance is 2,476 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 205–242 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does AUS–STS fly?

Southwest Airlines runs the route with about 3 flights a week (mon, thu, fri). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.

What does the route health score measure?

A blend of departure-side delay at AUS and arrival-side delay at STS, computed from rolling delay windows (refreshed every 40 minutes) with a daily-rollup fallback. Current MVFR, IFR, or LIFR endpoint weather caps the score when flight rules can limit throughput. Higher is healthier: 100 means operations are clean at both ends.
