FAT to DEN questions
Is FAT–DEN running on time right now?
High disruption likely. The arrival side at DEN is the weaker end, route health score 0/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from FAT to DEN?
Great-circle distance is 1,355 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 126–146 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does FAT–DEN fly?
2 carriers operate this route, around 28 flights a week between them. Compare carrier days and times in the airline list above.
What does the route health score measure?
A blend of departure-side delay at FAT and arrival-side delay at DEN, 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.
