Paris (Orly, Val-de-Marne) to Singapore
13h 46mgate to gate
The flight from Paris-Orly Airport (ORY) to Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) covers 10,744 km (6,676 miles) and takes approximately 13h 46m gate to gate for a typical jet.
The route heads east on an initial great-circle bearing of 80°, passing near 35.6° N, 67.3° 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: 10,744 km.
- Airborne time = that distance ÷ 805 km/h, a representative jet cruise speed: 13h 21m.
- Add a flat 25 minutes for pushback, taxi, climb, descent and taxi-in — the reason a 400 km hop is never half an hour: 13h 46m gate to gate.
- Winds, aircraft type and airline schedule padding are not modelled. The cruise-speed table shows how much that assumption is worth.
10,744 km / 805 km/h = 13h 21m airborne
+ 25 min ground = 13h 46m 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 | 19h 32m | 19h 57m |
| Narrowbody jet (A320, 737) | 780 km/h | 13h 46m | 14h 12m |
| Widebody jet (777, 787, A350) | 900 km/h | 11h 56m | 12h 21m |
| Private jet (Gulfstream) | 850 km/h | 12h 38m | 13h 04m |
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 Paris (Orly, Val-de-Marne) to Singapore?
A non-stop flight from Paris (Orly, Val-de-Marne) (ORY) to Singapore (SIN) takes about 13h 46m. The great-circle distance is 10,744 km (6,676 miles, 5,801 nautical miles), flying east on an initial bearing of 80°.
How far is Paris (Orly, Val-de-Marne) from Singapore?
10,744 kilometres in a straight line over the earth's surface — 6,676 miles or 5,801 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 ORY and SIN?
This page calculates the direct-line time and distance; it does not track airline schedules. At 10,744 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 13h 46m 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.
