Travel Info Why does travelling from australia to singapore take longer than travelling from singapore to australia? Travel Tips You didn't say as much but I take it you're flying...If, one way you're plane is flying "into" the jet stream and the other way your plane is flying "with" the jet stream, well, you figure it out... Others Howard Stern the earth spins The Jet stream. Going in one direction you are going against the wind (so to speak), going the other way you go with the wind so there is less resistance. It depends on the route the airline take and the area of airspace clearance the airline have. E.g. Aussie airline have clearance to fly thru Aussie, Indonesia and straight to Singapore. However Singapore airline might not have clearance to fly thru indonesia airspace so it might have to take a longer route. Due to the rotation of earth. Australia to Singapore is uphiill. Just look at an atlas. |
