About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Perth Airport (PER), Perth, Western Australia, Australia and Bali Airport (BLC), Bali, Cameroon 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!

Facts about Perth Airport (PER):
- 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.
- 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.
- In 2001, after the financial collapse of Ansett Airlines, the Ansett terminal became a multi-user terminal, catering for flights from former Ansett-subsidiary Skywest, as well as Virgin Australia and now charter airlines including Alliance Airlines and previously Strategic Airlines.
- In 1960, the current international terminal previously constructed from steel and cladding from Manus Island was dismantled and then re-erected in the suburb of Cannington.
- 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.
- 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.
- Perth Airport (PER) has 2 runways.
- It is the fourth busiest airport in Australia and services Australian and Indian Ocean destinations, as well as Johannesburg, Auckland, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Guangzhou and Doha.
- Full civilian operations at the Guildford Aerodrome commenced in 1944.
- The closest airport to Perth Airport (PER) is Jandakot Airport (JAD), which is located only 12 miles (19 kilometers) SSW of PER.
- Perth Airport handled 13,664,394 passengers last year.
Facts about Bali Airport (BLC):
- The furthest airport from Bali Airport (BLC) is Canton Island Airport (CIS), which is nearly antipodal to Bali Airport (meaning Bali Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Canton Island Airport), and is located 12,190 miles (19,618 kilometers) away in Canton Island, Kiribati.
- 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 BLC. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BLC a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- The closest airport to Bali Airport (BLC) is Bali Airport (BAJ), which is located only 0 mile (0 kilometer) N of BLC.
- Bali Airport (BLC) currently has only 1 runway.
- In addition to being known as "Bali Airport", another name for BLC is "Bali Airport (Bali)".
