Nonstop flight route between Perth, Western Australia, Australia and Springvale, Western Australia, Australia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Perth Airport (PER), Perth, Western Australia, Australia and Springvale Airport (ZVG), Springvale, Western Australia, Australia would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,221 miles (or 1,964 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 Perth Airport and Springvale Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

• The Guildford Aerodrome as it was then known was at best only a basic airfield.
• Perth Airport handled 13,664,394 passengers last year.
• The airport commemorated its 60th anniversary in 2004, with an event that opened the new Taxiway Sierra, a new taxiway supporting larger aircraft such as the Boeing 747, Airbus A340, and potentially the Airbus A380 to operate at the airport.
• The closest airport to Perth Airport (PER) is Jandakot Airport (JAD), which is located only 12 miles (19 kilometers) SSW of PER.
• In 2012, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission released a report rating the Perth Airport as the worst in Australia, as judged by airlines.

• The move was agreed to by the government of the day, as the larger types of aircraft of the day being operated by the two airlines could simply not be handled at Maylands, notwithstanding the small grass airfield, lack of passenger facilities, and approaches being difficult due to surrounding industrial infrastructure.
