Follow SQ380 in real time

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

SQ380 is not transmitting right now. It may be between rotations, on the ground, or out of receiver range - Check back near 20:45 at SIN. The full map has the rest of the sky, and what is flying over me will name whatever is above you instead.

SQ380 at a glance

  • The trip: 6,294 km (3,911 miles) from Singapore to Sydney, flying south-east.
  • How long: 8h 05m gate to gate. That is about 779 km/h on average, taxi time included.
  • Your watch: set it 3 hours forward on arrival.
  • Window seat tip: the right (south-facing) side gets the sun on a daytime flight.
  • The plane: usually an Airbus A380-800. This route uses about 43% of how far it can fly.
  • When it goes: out of SIN in late evening, into SYD in early morning. It is an overnight, so most of the cabin will try to sleep.

SQ380 route overview: SIN to SYD

SQ380 distance and great-circle path

SQ380 covers 6,294 km, or 3,911 miles. That makes it a long-haul flight, a widebody route with a full night's flying time. Of the 439 routes we track, it ranks 183 by distance.

The plane leaves Singapore heading south-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 SIN-SYD route appears on a tracker map.

Why SQ380 block time differs from cruise time

The schedule allows 8.1 hours from gate to gate. That works out to about 779 km/h. An Airbus A380-800 cruises faster than that. The gap is taxi time, climbing, descending and holding.

Flying east, this route usually picks up tailwinds high up. The flight back west normally takes longer, even though the distance is identical. See how timing changes the trip in our red-eye flight guide.

Can the Airbus A380-800 comfortably fly SQ380?

Not at all. At roughly 43% of its range, this is an easy trip for an Airbus A380-800. The airline picked it for cabin size, not distance. The full numbers are on our aircraft page for the Airbus A380-800.

What to know about SQ380

  • Time change: you land 3 hours ahead of the time you left.
  • Crosses the equator: you swap seasons between takeoff and landing.

How much CO2 does SQ380 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Airbus A380, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown6,294 km
AircraftAirbus A380-800
Fuel burn rate13.69 kg per km
Fuel burned86,173 kg
CO2, whole flight272.3 tonnes
Seats, typical layout525
Passengers carried436 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger625 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 625 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy410 seats, 340 flown
424 kg CO2 per seat
Business89 seats, 74 flown
1,229 kg CO2 per seat
First26 seats, 22 flown
1,695 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, SQ380 emits what 4,538 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 3,674 km, or 17,844 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at sectors of 3,704 km, 11,112 km and 13,334 km, interpolated to this route's 6,294 km. 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 SQ380 against another flight.
