Flight Profile

Cruise Altitude: too short to reach cruise

Route calculated using great circle navigation

Too short for a turbulence forecast

Forecastable turbulence (jet streams and clear-air turbulence) forms high up, on longer flights. A hop this short barely reaches cruise altitude, so there is almost nothing to predict, and short flights are among the smoothest you can take. Any bumps are usually brief, during climb or descent, from local winds near the ground.

💙
We know turbulence can feel scary - especially on long flights. This report is built for you: what bumps feel like, when they happen, and why they don't put the aircraft in danger. Many passengers feel exactly the same way.

100 data points analyzed
Mostly Smooth

Overall conditions look mostly smooth with occasional light bumps. Nothing to worry about.

Takeoff

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

Winds Aloft

Winds at cruising altitude are about 41 knots.

Landing

Landing should feel smooth with typical approach conditions.

You're in Safe Hands

If you feel nervous at any point, remember that turbulence is expected, safe, and part of normal flying. The crew is monitoring everything, and the aircraft is built to handle far more than anything you will feel. Have a safe and calm flight.
