Las Vegas to Singapore
18h 04mgate to gate
The flight from Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) to Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) covers 14,209 km (8,829 miles) and takes approximately 18h 04m gate to gate for a typical jet.
The route heads north-west on an initial great-circle bearing of 307°, passing near 44.1° N, 157.8° E at its midpoint.

How this is worked out
- Take both airports' published coordinates from OurAirports — nothing here is scraped from another flight site.
- Great-circle distance by haversine on a mean earth radius of 6,371.0088 km: 14,209 km.
- Airborne time = that distance ÷ 805 km/h, a representative jet cruise speed: 17h 39m.
- Add a flat 25 minutes for pushback, taxi, climb, descent and taxi-in — the reason a 400 km hop is never half an hour: 18h 04m gate to gate.
- Winds, aircraft type and airline schedule padding are not modelled. The cruise-speed table shows how much that assumption is worth.
14,209 km / 805 km/h = 17h 39m airborne
+ 25 min ground = 18h 04m gate to gate

The same route, plotted on a world grid
The strip above gives the route its length and its shape. This gives it a position: latitude and longitude only, no coastlines, because a hand-drawn coastline would be decoration pretending to be data. On a flat grid the shortest path 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 | 25h 50m | 26h 15m |
| Narrowbody jet (A320, 737) | 780 km/h | 18h 13m | 18h 38m |
| Widebody jet (777, 787, A350) | 900 km/h | 15h 47m | 16h 12m |
| Private jet (Gulfstream) | 850 km/h | 16h 43m | 17h 08m |
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 this plate answers
How long is the flight from Las Vegas to Singapore?
A non-stop flight from Las Vegas (LAS) to Singapore (SIN) takes about 18h 04m. The great-circle distance is 14,209 km (8,829 miles, 7,672 nautical miles), flying north-west on an initial bearing of 307°.
How far is Las Vegas from Singapore?
14,209 kilometres in a straight line over the earth's surface — 8,829 miles or 7,672 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 LAS and SIN?
This page calculates the direct-line time and distance; it does not track airline schedules. At 14,209 km the route is at the extreme end of what any airliner can fly non-stop, so a connection is likely. Check an airline or booking site for what is actually scheduled.
What should I expect on a 18h 04m 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.
