SFO to RIC questions

Is SFO–RIC running on time right now?

Smooth skies ahead. The arrival side at RIC is the weaker end, route health score 94/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from SFO to RIC?

Great-circle distance is 3,932 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 308–367 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does SFO–RIC fly?

Breeze Airways runs the route with about 2 flights a week (wed, sat). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.

What does the route health score measure?

A blend of departure-side delay at SFO and arrival-side delay at RIC, 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.
