Enroute

The Enroute phase of your flight is when you are near, or at the filed altitude that was requested on the Flight Plan. The majority of your scheduled flight time is spent during this phase, of course depending on the distance you are flying!

While your flight is hopefully smooth and uneventful at your final altitude, there are many things going on that your pilots and/or flight attendants must do. Click on the below items to find out more...
