Via Bay of Bengal

Cleanest
Flowing 100
Clean airspace · ~5h 15m · Many options

Primary DEL–HKG routing tracks southeast from Delhi, crossing the Bay of Bengal, Myanmar FIR, and South China Sea before reaching Hong Kong. Airspace_score 0 — completely avoids Iranian FIR, Pakistani FIR, and Central Asian FIRs. Cathay Pacific, Air India, and IndiGo operate non-stop service. The southeastern Bay of Bengal routing is the standard industry choice under all advisory conditions.

Watch

Myanmar FIR (VYYY) overflight — generally advisory-clean; verify current NOTAMs. Bay of Bengal and South China Sea transit are fully advisory-clean.

Via Central Asian Corridor

Flowing 76
Near zone airspace · ~5h 35m · Some options

Northern DEL–HKG variant routing northwest from Delhi then east across Central Asian FIRs and through China. Airspace_score 1 for Central Asian FIR congestion and Iranian FIR proximity near departure. Bay of Bengal routing is shorter, advisory-cleaner, and the industry standard for DEL–HKG.

How this is assessed

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.
