Your Flight

We analysed more than 900 data points along your route from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, Washington to Akron/canton Regional, Akron.

Your Journey Beta

Some bumpy patches are scattered throughout the flight. Keep your seatbelt fastened when seated.

Your route takes you over the Appalachian Mountains – conditions there can sometimes cause light turbulence.

Mostly Smooth

Overall conditions look mostly smooth with some light bumps expected. Pilots often adjust altitude or route to find smoother air.

Takeoff

Takeoff should feel smooth with possible light bumps, with calm conditions around the airport.

Winds Aloft

Winds at cruising altitude are about 72 knots.

Landing

Landing should feel a bit bumpy on descent with typical approach conditions.

You're in Safe Hands
