General Edward Lawrence Logan International to Punta Gorda Airport BOS → PGD

1,072 nautical miles (1,234 statute miles) southwest on a straight line, true course 214°, about 229° magnetic at the departure end (variation 15W). At 120 knots that is 8 h 35 min at the quickest height in today's winds (4,500 ft, a 5-knot tailwind), arriving about 4:54 pm EDT (20:54 UTC). Right now BOS is IFR, wind from the north (350°) at 8 knots; PGD is VFR, wind from the north-northeast (030°) 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: 1 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

Green, blue, red and purple airport dots are the flying conditions reported there now (VFR, marginal VFR, IFR, low IFR); grey means no report. Red areas are SIGMETs, orange areas AIRMETs, hatched red areas temporary flight restrictions. Map tiles: OpenFreeMap, data © OpenStreetMap contributors.

Warnings the route crosses SIGMETs and AIRMETs whose area the line passes through or comes within 25 nm of

  • SIGMET E38E: thunderstorms (a convective SIGMET) up to 32,000 ft, moving from the northwest at 20 knots, until 9:55 am EDT (13:55 UTC). Near the route, 248 nm along the route.

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.
