How far it really runs
The route covers 9,636 km against 9,347 km in a straight line, a detour of 3 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
Where the change is
Connections are made at Vienna. The gap between arriving and leaving is 104 minutes, of which about 5 is walking.
If the connection is missed

Bangkok is large, and the road in from BKK can take longer than the last hour of the flight. Cars are not our business.
