The gate-to-gate flying time between San Francisco and Fresno, according to Orbitz, is between 40 minutes and an hour, depending on which direction you're flying. (The flight from San Francisco to Fresno has a longer scheduled time than the other direction, due to anticipated heavy traffic in San Francisco making the taxi and take-off time longer than leaving Fresno. They anticipate that waiting to take off from SFO will take about 20 minutes longer than going the other direction, due to relatively few flights leaving Fresno at any given time.) Given those times, the actual time in the air will be somewhere between 25 and 30 minutes -- as is shown above, though, the actual gate-to-gate time will vary based upon the airports involved.

55 to 60 minutes depending on the airlines. I live in Austin, TX so I fly directly to Dallas, TX a lot of the times I travel which is a 3 1/2 hour drive but only about 54 minutes by plane. Very convenient. For San F. and Fresno, typical tickets would cost below 400 dollars. :P

How long is a flight from Chicago to San francisco

How long is a flight from Chicago to San francisco?
Will it be more than one stop to get there? When they say its more than one stop, do that mean I have to switch planes or do i stay on the same one while people get off? I want to fly out from Midway on a Thursday and come back on a Sunday.

For direct flights: From O'Hare, you have 2 options, United and American. If you want Midway, book with southwest, best fare you're going to get. There are direct flights to San Francisco Int'l [SFO], or Oakland Airport nearby. Go for direct flights when you can. Stops will probably get you a lower fare, but its more tiresome. Flights usually take around 4.5 hours westbound, and 4 hours eastbound.

How long did the flight from Honolulu to San Francisco take in the 1950's

How long did the flight from Honolulu to San Francisco take in the 1950's?
I know its a lot longer then it is today as early jet engines were less power and therefore you had less airspeed, but by how much? I am watching "The High and the Mighty" and it got me curious. OK i just realized they were still using props, but still, how long did it take?

It depends on your layover time - there are no non-stop flights from SFO. There are non-stops from LAX though, with flight times of about 5 1/2 hours.
