How long is the flight from SAW to SZF?

Great-circle distance is 609 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 73–82 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does SAW–SZF fly?

What does the route health score measure?

A blend of departure-side delay at SAW and arrival-side delay at SZF, 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.
