Your Flight

We analysed more than 5,000 data points along your route from Beijing Capital International Airport, Beijing to Sanya Phoenix International Airport, Sanya (Tianya).

Your Journey Beta

2 hours 35 minutes into the flight: Some moderate bumps expected.
The crew may adjust altitude or ask you to stay seated during these sections.
The rest of the flight should be smooth.

Your route takes you directly to your destination.

Mostly Smooth

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

Takeoff

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

Winds Aloft

Winds at cruising altitude are about 87 knots. These winds may delay arrival by up to 15 minutes.

Landing

Landing should feel smooth with possible light bumps 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.

☀️ Morning Flight

Morning flights typically experience smoother conditions as the atmosphere is more stable and thermal turbulence hasn't yet developed.

Wide-Body Aircraft (Large)

Large, twin-aisle aircraft like this generally provide the smoothest ride through turbulence due to their size, weight, and advanced stabilization systems.
