How the San José del Cabo to Sacramento route actually runs

SJD to SMF questions
Is SJD–SMF running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. The arrival side at SMF is the weaker end, route health score 92/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from SJD to SMF?
Great-circle distance is 2,062 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 176–207 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does SJD–SMF fly?
Southwest Airlines runs the route with about 5 flights a week (sun, mon, thu, fri, 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 SJD and arrival-side delay at SMF, 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.
