The route
The great-circle path — the shortest line between the two airports across the curve of the earth. On a flat map it looks bent; on a globe it is straight.
Flight time at different cruise speeds
Aircraft type, winds and routing all move the real number. This is the same distance flown at different speeds, plus the 25-minute ground and climb allowance.
| Typical of | Cruise speed | Airborne | Gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Turboprop / regional | 550 km/h | 22h 06m | 22h 31m |
| Narrowbody jet (A320, 737) | 780 km/h | 15h 35m | 16h 00m |
| Widebody jet (777, 787, A350) | 900 km/h | 13h 30m | 13h 56m |
| Private jet (Gulfstream) | 850 km/h | 14h 18m | 14h 43m |
Headwinds on an eastbound long-haul routinely add 30–60 minutes; the same route westbound can be quicker. Airlines publish schedules with padding built in.

Questions
How long is the flight from Amsterdam to Kuta, Badung?
A non-stop flight from Amsterdam (AMS) to Kuta, Badung (DPS) takes about 15h 31m. The great-circle distance is 12,157 km (7,554 miles, 6,564 nautical miles), flying east on an initial bearing of 79°.
How far is Amsterdam from Kuta, Badung?
12,157 kilometres in a straight line over the earth's surface — 7,554 miles or 6,564 nautical miles. Actual flown distance is usually 2–5% longer because aircraft follow airways, avoid weather and route around restricted airspace.
Is there a non-stop flight between AMS and DPS?
This page calculates the direct-line time and distance; it does not track airline schedules. At 12,157 km the route is within reach of long-range widebodies, though not every city pair is served non-stop. Check an airline or booking site for what is actually scheduled.
What should I expect on a 15h 31m flight?
Anything past six hours is a long-haul flight: expect at least one meal service, a significant time-zone shift, and enough sitting that circulation and hydration start to matter. Cabin altitude, dry air and disrupted sleep do more damage to a training routine than the flight itself.
