Nonstop flight route between Changi, Singapore and Salt Lake City, Utah, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Singapore Changi Airport (SIN), Changi, Singapore and Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), Salt Lake City, Utah, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,752 miles (or 14,084 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 Singapore Changi Airport and Salt Lake City International 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 Singapore Changi Airport and Salt Lake City International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Singapore Changi Airport (SIN):

• Concerned that the existing airport was located in an area with potential for urban growth, which would physically hem it in on all sides, the government subsequently decided in 1975 to build a new airport at the eastern tip of the main island at Changi, at the existing site of Changi Air Base, where the new airport would be easily expandable through land reclamation.
• Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) has 3 runways.
• Recently Changi Airport has also announced plans to reduce consumption of electricity and use recycled water at its terminal buildings over the next three years, as part of its contribution towards environmental sustainability.
• There will also be a fourth runway at Changi East which was announced during the National Day Rally Speech in 2013.
• Because of Singapore Changi Airport's relatively low elevation of 22 feet, planes can take off or land at Singapore Changi 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 furthest airport from Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) is Francisco de Orellana Airport (OCC), which is nearly antipodal to Singapore Changi Airport (meaning Singapore Changi Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Francisco de Orellana Airport), and is located 12,345 miles (19,868 kilometers) away in Coca, Ecuador.
• In addition to being known as "Singapore Changi Airport", other names for SIN include "Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Changi Singapura", "新加坡樟宜机场(Xīnjiāpō Zhāngyí Jīchǎng)" and "சிங்கப்பூர் சாங்கி விமானநிலையம் (Ciṅkappūr Cāṅki Vimana Nilaiyam)".
• Even as new terminals are being built, the airport continuously upgrades and expands its existing terminals.
• The closest airport to Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) is Paya Lebar Air Base (PLAB) (QPG), which is located only 6 miles (9 kilometers) W of SIN.

• Because of Salt Lake City International Airport's high elevation of 4,227 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at SLC. Combined with a high temperature, this could make SLC a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
