OAK to PVG questions

Is OAK–PVG running on time right now?

Mostly on schedule. The departure side at OAK is the weaker end, route health score 69/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from OAK to PVG?

Great-circle distance is 9,881 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 727–877 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does OAK–PVG fly?

Jet Linx Aviation runs the route with about 1 flight a week (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 OAK and arrival-side delay at PVG, 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.
