# Singapore to Bangkok: distance, flight time and the route it really takes

Singapore Changi to Suvarnabhumi is 1,417 km of great circle — 880 mi — and an estimated 2h 16m in the air. Both ends are in Asia.

## What the aircraft actually flies over

From Singapore the path crosses Malaysia, then 808 km of open water.

The furthest the great circle gets from the equator is 13.7°N, 100% of the way along.

Holding a single compass bearing the whole way would cover almost exactly the same ground, so on this route the flat map and the globe agree.

The heading barely moves: north out of Singapore, north into Bangkok. Over this distance the curve has too little room to bend the compass.

One economy seat on it is about 210 kg of CO₂e each way, counting non-CO₂ warming.
