San Antonio International to Hollywood Burbank Airport SAT → BUR
1,050 nautical miles (1,209 statute miles) west on a straight line, true course 291°, about 287° magnetic at the departure end (variation 4E). At 120 knots that is 8 h 36 min at the quickest height in today's winds (4,500 ft, a 2-knot tailwind), arriving about 1:45 am PDT (08:45 UTC), after sunset at the destination. Right now SAT is VFR, wind from the south-southeast (150°) at 10 knots, gusting to 20; BUR is VFR, wind from the south (190°) at 11 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: 13 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 10 forecast points nearest it (SAT, DRT, INK, MRF, ELP, TUS, PHX, BLH, ONT, WJF). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

Based on data from the 11th at 18:00 UTC; valid on the 12th at 00:00 UTC for use 20:00 to 03:00 UTC; temperatures above 24,000 ft are below zero. 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.
