CM804 route overview: PTY to JFK

CM804 distance and great-circle path

CM804 covers 3,554 km, or 2,208 miles. That makes it a medium-haul flight, long enough for a full meal service, short enough for narrowbodies. Of the 255 routes we track, it ranks 183 by distance.

The plane leaves Panama City heading north. On the map above, the line looks curved. That is normal. The shortest path over a round planet never looks straight on a flat screen. Our guide explains how the PTY–JFK route appears on a tracker map.

Why CM804 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 5.2 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 677 km/h. A Boeing 737 MAX 9 cruises faster than that. The gap is taxi time, climbing, descending and holding.

Winds aloft shift the real flight time by up to an hour in either direction. See what really moves flight times.
