Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at SEA is the weaker end, route health score 91/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
Great-circle distance is 4,051 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 316–377 min gate-to-gate on this route.
2 carriers operate this route, around 14 flights a week between them. Compare carrier days and times in the airline list above.
A blend of departure-side delay at SEA and arrival-side delay at TPA, 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.
