Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport to Washington Dulles International OAK → IAD

2,088 nautical miles (2,403 statute miles) east on a straight line, true course 074°, about 060° magnetic at the departure end (variation 14E). At 120 knots that is 12 h 21 min at the quickest height in today's winds (39,000 ft, a 49-knot tailwind), arriving about 10:09 am EDT (14:09 UTC). Right now OAK is VFR, wind from the west (260°) at 12 knots; IAD is IFR, wind from the north (350°) at 6 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.
