The airspeed of a jet can vary significantly depending on the type of aircraft and its operational conditions. Commercial jets typically cruise at speeds between 450 to 600 miles per hour (724 to 966 kilometers per hour), while military jets can exceed speeds of 1,500 miles per hour (2,414 kilometers per hour) or more. Factors like altitude, weather, and the specific flight profile also influence airspeed.

Do west bound airplanes avoid the jet stream?

If they can avoid it they do. The jetstream is very strong and the headwinds can really drive up the amount of fuel you need to gain and maintain airspeed.
