According to USA Today, the common cruising altitude for most commercial airplanes is between 33,000 and 42,000 feet, or between about six and nearly eight miles above sea level. Typically, aircraft fly around 35,000 or 36,000 feet in the air.
Commercial planes typically cruise at 30,000–42,000 feet (9–13 km). This altitude balances fuel efficiency, air resistance, and weather avoidance. Smaller planes fly lower, around 10,000–15,000 feet (3–5 km). The exact height depends on the aircraft type, route, and air traffic control. Higher altitudes mean thinner air, so cabins are pressurized for comfort. Safe, smooth, and efficien
