Follow SV301 in real time

The aircraft appears below whenever it is airborne and inside receiver coverage. Its planned route is drawn between the two airports.

SV301 is not transmitting right now. It may be between rotations, on the ground, or out of receiver range - Check back near 14:00 at JED. The full map has the rest of the sky, and what is flying over me will name whatever is above you instead.

SV301 at a glance

  • How long: 2h 25m gate to gate. That is about 503 km/h on average, taxi time included.
  • Your watch: no change, both cities share a clock.
  • Window seat tip: the left (south-facing) side gets the sun on a daytime flight.
  • The plane: usually an Airbus A330-300. This route uses about 10% of how far it can fly.
  • When it goes: out of JED in the afternoon, into CAI in the afternoon.

SV301 route overview: JED to CAI

SV301 distance and great-circle path

SV301 covers 1,217 km, or 756 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 370 by distance.

The plane leaves Jeddah heading north-west. 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 JED-CAI route appears on a tracker map.

Why SV301 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 2.4 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 503 km/h. An Airbus A330-300 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.

Can the Airbus A330-300 comfortably fly SV301?

Not at all. At roughly 10% of its range, this is an easy trip for an Airbus A330-300. The airline picked it for cabin size, not distance. The full numbers are on our aircraft page for the Airbus A330-300.

What to know about SV301

  • Time change: none. Both cities keep the same clock, so arrival time reads exactly as you expect.

SV301 activity in the past 7 days

Our database contains 1 observation of SV301 across 1 UTC date in this window, most recently 2026-10-25. Those records contain 1 distinct transponder address.

The median recorded visibility was 7 minutes. That is time inside receiver coverage, not airborne duration or an on-time-performance measurement.

How much CO2 does SV301 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Airbus A330-300, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown1,217 km
AircraftAirbus A330-300
Fuel burn rate6.25 kg per km
Fuel burned7,601 kg
CO2, whole flight24.0 tonnes
Seats, typical layout277
Passengers carried230 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger104 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 104 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy227 seats, 188 flown
76 kg CO2 per seat
Business42 seats, 35 flown
219 kg CO2 per seat
First8 seats, 7 flown
303 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, SV301 emits what 400 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 614 km, or 2,984 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at sectors of 5,556 km and 10,275 km, all longer than this route, so the closest is held flat and the real figure is likely a little higher. 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 SV301 against another flight.
