About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Lethem Airport (LTM), Lethem, Guyana and Wilwal International Airport (JIJ), Jijiga, Ethiopia would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,044 miles (or 11,336 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 Lethem Airport and Wilwal International 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 Lethem Airport and Wilwal International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Lethem Airport (LTM):

  • The closest airport to Lethem Airport (LTM) is Boa Vista-Atlas Brasil Cantanhede International Airport (BVB), which is located 72 miles (116 kilometers) WSW of LTM.
  • Because of Lethem Airport's relatively low elevation of 351 feet, planes can take off or land at Lethem 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 Lethem Airport (LTM) is Andi Jemma Airport (MXB), which is nearly antipodal to Lethem Airport (meaning Lethem Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Andi Jemma Airport), and is located 12,380 miles (19,924 kilometers) away in Masamba, Indonesia.
