About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Nagasaki Airport (NGS), Nagasaki, Japan and Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK), Bangkok, Thailand would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,264 miles (or 3,644 kilometers).
A Great Circle is the shortest distance between 2 points on a sphere. Because most world maps are flat (but the Earth is round), the route of the shortest distance between 2 points on the Earth will often appear curved when viewed on a flat map, especially for long distances. If you were to simply draw a straight line on a flat map and measure a very long distance, it would likely be much further than if you were to lay a string between those two points on a globe. Because of the relatively short distance between Nagasaki Airport and Suvarnabhumi Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

- The current island runway and terminal opened on May 1, 1975.
- The closest airport to Nagasaki Airport (NGS) is Saga Airport (HSG), which is located 28 miles (45 kilometers) NE of NGS.
- Nagasaki Airport (NGS) has 2 runways.
- In addition to being known as "Nagasaki Airport", other names for NGS include "長崎空港" and "Nagasaki Kūkō".
- Because of Nagasaki Airport's relatively low elevation of 8 feet, planes can take off or land at Nagasaki Airport at a lower air speed than at airports located at a higher elevation. This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
Facts about Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK):
- Suvarnabhumi Airport's main terminal's characteristic green building envelope is 100 ft high and runs throughout the perimeter for a total of 3610 ft.
- Detailed investigations found that water seepage was evident along the rims of the expansion joints in the cement-tested base, indicating that a large quantity of water was still trapped in the sand blanket.
- Because of Suvarnabhumi Airport's relatively low elevation of 5 feet, planes can take off or land at Suvarnabhumi Airport at a lower air speed than at airports located at a higher elevation. This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
- Suvarnabhumi officially opened at 03:00 on 28 September 2006, taking over all flights from Don Mueang.
- Further investigations found that taxilane and taxiway rutting was caused by separation of the asphalt binder from the aggregate surface due to prolonged water infiltration into the asphalt concrete base course, a phenomenon known as "stripping." The 23-centimetre thick base course is the top-most layer of the tarmac.
- In addition to being known as "Suvarnabhumi Airport", other names for BKK include "ท่าอากาศยานสุวรรณภูมิ" and "VTBS".
