About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Gisborne Airport (GIS), Gisborne, New Zealand and Rome State Airport (REO), Rome, Oregon, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,902 miles (or 11,108 kilometers).
A Great Circle is the shortest distance between 2 points on a sphere. Because most world maps are flat (but the Earth is round), the route of the shortest distance between 2 points on the Earth will often appear curved when viewed on a flat map, especially for long distances. If you were to simply draw a straight line on a flat map and measure a very long distance, it would likely be much further than if you were to lay a string between those two points on a globe. Because of the large distance between Gisborne Airport and Rome State Airport, the route shown on this map most likely appears curved because of this reason.
Try it at home! Get a globe and tightly lay a string between Gisborne Airport and Rome State Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Gisborne Airport (GIS):
- The Eastland Group Website
- Quote from Eastland Group's Website
- Because of Gisborne Airport's relatively low elevation of 15 feet, planes can take off or land at Gisborne Airport at a lower air speed than at airports located at a higher elevation. This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
- The furthest airport from Gisborne Airport (GIS) is Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC), which is nearly antipodal to Gisborne Airport (meaning Gisborne Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Alicante-Elche Airport), and is located 12,353 miles (19,881 kilometers) away in Alicante, Spain.
- Gisborne Airport (GIS) has 4 runways.
- The closest airport to Gisborne Airport (GIS) is Whakatane Airport (WHK), which is located 77 miles (124 kilometers) NW of GIS.
Facts about Rome State Airport (REO):

- The furthest airport from Rome State Airport (REO) is Tôlanaro Airport (FTU), which is located 10,950 miles (17,622 kilometers) away in Tôlanaro, Madagascar.
- Because of Rome State Airport's high elevation of 4,053 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at REO. Combined with a high temperature, this could make REO a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- Rome State Airport (REO) currently has only 1 runway.
