Laurence G Hanscom Field to Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport BED → OAK

2,321 nautical miles (2,671 statute miles) west on a straight line, true course 281°, about 297° magnetic at the departure end (variation 16W). At 120 knots that is 22 h 06 min at the quickest height in today's winds (6,500 ft, a 15-knot headwind), arriving about 2:36 am PDT (09:36 UTC), after sunset at the destination. Right now BED is IFR, wind from the north (360°) at 5 knots; OAK is VFR, wind from the east (100°) at 5 knots. For planning, not a briefing: the legal preflight briefing comes from Flight Service (1-800-WX-BRIEF) or the FAA's own tools. Airlines fly this pair: 2 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

Heights are above sea level; a height is left out when the forecast has no wind for it over most of the line (the ground is higher). Ground speed is the airspeed less the headwind; the time en route is for the straight line and ignores climb, descent and routing around weather.
