SHJ to CAI questions
How long is the flight from SHJ to CAI?
Great-circle distance is 2,427 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 201–238 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does SHJ–CAI fly?
4 carriers operate this route, around 46 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 SHJ and arrival-side delay at CAI, 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.
