Follow AK130 in real time

The aircraft appears below whenever it is airborne and inside receiver coverage. Its planned route is drawn between the two airports.

AK130 is not transmitting right now. It may be between rotations, on the ground, or out of receiver range - Check back near 11:20 at KUL. The full map has the rest of the sky, and what is flying over me will name whatever is above you instead.

AK130 route overview: KUL to HKG

AK130 distance and great-circle path

AK130 covers 2,543 km, or 1,580 miles. That makes it a medium-haul flight, long enough for a full meal service, short enough for narrowbodies. Of the 439 routes we track, it ranks 293 by distance.

The plane leaves Kuala Lumpur heading north-east. On the map above, the line looks curved. That is normal. The shortest path over a round planet never looks straight on a flat screen. Our guide explains how the KUL-HKG route appears on a tracker map.

Why AK130 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 3.9 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 649 km/h. An Airbus A321neo cruises faster than that. The gap is taxi time, climbing, descending and holding.

Winds aloft shift the real flight time by up to an hour in either direction. See what really moves flight times.

Can the Airbus A321neo comfortably fly AK130?

Not at all. At roughly 34% of its range, this is an easy trip for an Airbus A321neo. The airline picked it for cabin size, not distance. The full numbers are on our aircraft page for the Airbus A321neo.

What to know about AK130

  • Time change: none. Both cities keep the same clock, so arrival time reads exactly as you expect.

How much CO2 does AK130 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Airbus A321neo, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown2,543 km
AircraftAirbus A321neo
Fuel burn rate3.3 kg per km
Fuel burned8,389 kg
CO2, whole flight26.5 tonnes
Seats, typical layout180
Passengers carried149 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger178 kg

Where that lands by cabin

The aircraft burns the same fuel whoever is aboard, so the cabins divide one total rather than each carrying their own. A seat's share is the floor it takes up, which is why an economy seat comes out below the 178 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy158 seats, 131 flown
145 kg CO2 per seat
Business22 seats, 18 flown
420 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, AK130 emits what 442 trees take back out of the air in a year. One economy seat on it accounts for about the same carbon dioxide as driving a petrol car 1,047 km, or 5,083 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at a 1,222 km sector, the only published sector for this type, applied to this route's 2,543 km unadjusted. It counts carbon dioxide only, and the cabin split assumes the layout typical of this size of aircraft. Read the full method, sources and caveats, or put AK130 against another flight.
