What the aircraft actually flies over
From Singapore the path crosses Malaysia.
The path stays within 2.7°N of the equator for its whole length, so the aircraft tracks almost due north-west the entire way.
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-west out of Singapore, north-west into Kuala Lumpur. Over this distance the curve has too little room to bend the compass.
