G31402 route overview: CGH to SDU

G31402 distance and great-circle path

G31402 covers 366 km, or 227 miles. That makes it a short-haul flight, a single-aisle hop where turnaround time matters more than range. Of the 439 routes we track, it ranks 425 by distance.

The plane leaves São Paulo heading east. 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 CGH-SDU route appears on a tracker map.

Why G31402 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 1.1 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 337 km/h. A Boeing 737-800 cruises faster than that. The gap is taxi time, climbing, descending and holding.

Flying east, this route usually picks up tailwinds high up. The flight back west normally takes longer, even though the distance is identical. See what really moves flight times.

Can the Boeing 737-800 comfortably fly G31402?

Not at all. At roughly 6% of its range, this is an easy trip for a Boeing 737-800. The airline picked it for cabin size, not distance. The full numbers are on our aircraft page for the Boeing 737-800.

How much CO2 does G31402 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Boeing 737-800, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown366 km
AircraftBoeing 737-800
Fuel burn rate3.59 kg per km
Fuel burned1,312 kg
CO2, whole flight4.1 tonnes
Seats, typical layout162
Passengers carried134 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger31 kg

Where that lands by cabin

The aircraft burns the same fuel whoever is aboard, so the cabins divide one total rather than each carrying their own. A seat's share is the floor it takes up, which is why an economy seat comes out below the 31 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy143 seats, 119 flown
25 kg CO2 per seat
Business19 seats, 16 flown
73 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, G31402 emits what 69 trees take back out of the air in a year. One economy seat on it accounts for about the same carbon dioxide as driving a petrol car 182 km, or 884 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at a 926 km sector, the only published sector for this type, applied to this route's 366 km unadjusted. It counts carbon dioxide only, and the cabin split assumes the layout typical of this size of aircraft. Read the full method, sources and caveats, or put G31402 against another flight.
