Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport to Mineta San Jose International CHO → SJC

2,045 nautical miles (2,354 statute miles) west on a straight line, true course 282°, about 290° magnetic at the departure end (variation 8W). At 120 knots that is 18 h 25 min at the quickest height in today's winds (4,500 ft, a 9-knot headwind), arriving about 11:37 am PDT (18:37 UTC). Right now CHO is marginal VFR, wind from the north-northeast (030°) at 8 knots; SJC is VFR, wind from the north (350°) at 14 knots, gusting to 24. 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.

The westbound cruising heights for this course (VFR: even thousands plus 500 ft; above 18,000 ft the forecast levels), with the wind averaged along the line from the 18 forecast points nearest it (EKN, CRW, CMH, CVG, IND, SPI, COU, MKC, SLN, GRI, GLD, DEN, GJT, BCE, ELY, BIH, FAT, SFO). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

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.
