About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Chinggis Khaan International Airport (ULN), Ulan Bator, Mongolia and Bremen Airport (BRE), Bremen, Germany would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,977 miles (or 6,401 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 Chinggis Khaan International Airport and Bremen 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 Chinggis Khaan International Airport and Bremen Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Chinggis Khaan International Airport (ULN):
- The airport is due for replacement in 2017 by the new Khöshigt Valley Airport due to be constructed at the Khoshigt Valley 52 kilometres from Ulaanbaatar city centre.
- Because of Chinggis Khaan International Airport's high elevation of 4,364 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ULN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ULN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- Chinggis Khaan International Airport handled 1,098,865 passengers last year.
- The terminal was upgraded to make it suitable for international traffic in 1986.
