Nonstop flight route between Subang (near Kuala Lumpur), Malaysia and Taichung, Taiwan, Republic of China:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB), Subang (near Kuala Lumpur), Malaysia and Taichung Airport(Taichung Ching Chuan Kang Airport) (TXG), Taichung, Taiwan, Republic of China would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,936 miles (or 3,116 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 Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport and Taichung Airport(Taichung Ching Chuan Kang Airport), the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
