That would depend upon your definition of an average plane. Civilian passenger jets cruise at between 30,000 and 39,000 feet. Military aircraft can attain greater altitudes. Prop planes are limited to about 20,000 feet. A GA plane (small plane) can legally fly 2000 feet AGL. For most GA planes it depends on their service ceiling.

A typical commercial aircraft will travel at around 35,000 feet and will be moving at an airspeed of roughly 500-550 miles per hour, depending on the plane.
