Nonstop flight route between Perth, Western Australia, Australia and Bali, West New Britain, Papua New Guinea:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Perth Airport (PER), Perth, Western Australia, Australia and Bali Airport (BAJ), Bali, West New Britain, Papua New Guinea would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,367 miles (or 11,856 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 large distance between Perth Airport and Bali Airport, the route shown on this map most likely appears curved because of this reason.

Try it at home! Get a globe and tightly lay a string between Perth Airport and Bali Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Perth Airport handled 13,664,394 passengers last year.
• From 1962 onwards, both the domestic and international passenger operations at the airport were provided by a single terminal.
• Full civilian operations at the Guildford Aerodrome commenced in 1944.
• In November 1980, the Federal Transport Minister, Ralph Hunt, announced that a new international terminal would be built in Perth at a cost of A$26 million.
• From 2003 to 2004, the International terminal underwent major internal refurbishments to provide an increased array of passenger services, including increased space for duty-free stores and food and beverage concession stands.
• The furthest airport from Perth Airport (PER) is L.F. Wade International Airport (BDA), which is nearly antipodal to Perth Airport (meaning Perth Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from L.F. Wade International Airport), and is located 12,389 miles (19,938 kilometers) away in Ferry Reach (near Hamilton), Bermuda.
• The two domestic terminals are side by side and about 12 km from the Perth CBD, while the international terminal is 17 km from Perth.
• The domestic and international terminals are located separately, 11 km apart, and connected by a road – Dunreath Drive – an internal road connection within the airport boundaries.
• Because of Perth Airport's relatively low elevation of 67 feet, planes can take off or land at Perth 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.
• Perth Airport (PER) has 2 runways.
• The closest airport to Perth Airport (PER) is Jandakot Airport (JAD), which is located only 12 miles (19 kilometers) SSW of PER.

Facts about Bali Airport (BAJ):

• The closest airport to Bali Airport (BAJ) is Bali Airport (BLC), which is located only 0 mile (0 kilometer) N of BAJ.
• Because of Bali Airport's high elevation of 4,437 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BAJ. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BAJ a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
