All 3 assessed routes are currently rated Flowing.
Via Hong Kong scores highest on this corridor — clean airspace routing, with moderate detour impact.
Clean alternative via HKG. Both legs fully advisory-clean. Cathay Pacific's HKG hub is well-placed on the BKK–NRT geometry and adds less time than the SIN routing.
BKK–HKG–NRT is advisory-clean. Adds approximately 75 minutes versus direct due to the HKG connection.
Clean alternative via SIN for when direct fares are high or schedules don't align. Singapore Airlines' SIN–NRT segment is one of the most reliable in the region.
Clean, high-frequency route over the South China Sea and Philippine Sea. Thai Airways, JAL, and ANA provide strong daily capacity. No advisory zone involvement.

FlightDetour evaluates route options using advisory airspace exposure, corridor sensitivity, detour impact, and hub routing logic — based on publicly available EASA and national authority advisories.
Coverage focuses on major long-haul corridors. Some routing patterns — including certain China-side connections via mainland Chinese hubs — are not yet included. If you expect an option here and don't see it, that's a coverage gap, not an assessment.
Scores compare corridor quality; they do not predict airline operations or safety outcomes. Verify with your airline and government travel advisories before booking.
