I’m transferring information from my MacBook Air to my new MacBook Pro using Migration Assistant and it’s been well over an hour and a half. I’m wondering how long the process takes?
MacBook, macOS 10.15
It depends on how much data you're transferring and the method of transfer. Migrating 20-30 GB over a Thunderbolt 3 cable will take a few minutes. Migrating 100-200 GB over Wi-Fi will take a few hours.

I'm doing the same thing - migrating from an '11 MBPro running Hi Sierra to a new MBPro (refurb) w/Catalina
MA worked pretty well - EXCEPT -- 2 apps I need to transfer from the old to the new (Quicken '07 and '15) and I don't see how to do just those 2 - only option I see is to Migrate 'all' apps ?
Using wi-fi/peer-to-peer because I don't have a cable that will connect the 2 devices
How long does Migration Assistant take to transfer files?
