Nonstop flight route between Aarhus, Denmark and Andahuaylas, Peru:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Aarhus Airport (AAR), Aarhus, Denmark and Andahuaylas Airport (ANS), Andahuaylas, Peru would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,777 miles (or 10,906 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 Aarhus Airport and Andahuaylas 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 Aarhus Airport and Andahuaylas Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Aarhus Airport (AAR):

• Aarhus Airport (AAR) has 2 runways.
• The airport resides at an elevation of 82 feet above mean sea level.
• The airport was built in 1943 by German occupying forces and was used as a Cold War military base for the Danish and other allied airforces until the 1990s.
• Because of Aarhus Airport's relatively low elevation of 82 feet, planes can take off or land at Aarhus 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.
• In addition to being known as "Aarhus Airport", another name for AAR is "Aarhus Lufthavn".
• The furthest airport from Aarhus Airport (AAR) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,519 miles (18,539 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
• Aarhus Airport handled 45,991 passengers last year.
• The closest airport to Aarhus Airport (AAR) is Karup Airport (KRP), which is located 57 miles (92 kilometers) W of AAR.

Facts about Andahuaylas Airport (ANS):

• The closest airport to Andahuaylas Airport (ANS) is Coronel FAP Alfredo Mendívil Duarte Airport (AYC), which is located 69 miles (111 kilometers) NW of ANS.
• The furthest airport from Andahuaylas Airport (ANS) is Ratanakiri Airport (RBE), which is nearly antipodal to Andahuaylas Airport (meaning Andahuaylas Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Ratanakiri Airport), and is located 12,414 miles (19,979 kilometers) away in Ratanakiri, Cambodia.
• Because of Andahuaylas Airport's high elevation of 11,300 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ANS. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ANS a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• Andahuaylas Airport (ANS) currently has only 1 runway.
