How long is the flight from SAL to JFK?

Great-circle distance is 3,370 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 268–319 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does SAL–JFK fly?

2 carriers operate this route, around 26 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 SAL and arrival-side delay at JFK, 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.
