About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Adelaide Airport (ADL), Adelaide, South Australia, Australia and Khuzdar Airport (KDD), Khuzdar, Pakistan would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,384 miles (or 10,273 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 Adelaide Airport and Khuzdar 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 Adelaide Airport and Khuzdar Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Adelaide Airport (ADL):
- Adelaide Airport (ADL) has 2 runways.
- The closest airport to Adelaide Airport (ADL) is Kingscote Airport (KGC), which is located 78 miles (125 kilometers) SW of ADL.
- The first Qantas A380, VH-OQA "Nancy Bird Walton", made a historic landing at the airport on 27 September 2008, enthralling several thousand spectators who had gathered to catch a glimpse of the giant aircraft.
- Because of Adelaide Airport's relatively low elevation of 20 feet, planes can take off or land at Adelaide 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.
- Plans were announced for an expansion of the terminal in July 2007, including more aerobridges and demolition of the old International Terminal.
- The furthest airport from Adelaide Airport (ADL) is Flores Airport (FLW), which is located 11,789 miles (18,972 kilometers) away in Flores Island, Azores, Portugal.

Facts about Khuzdar Airport (KDD):
- The closest airport to Khuzdar Airport (KDD) is Moenjodaro Airport (MJD), which is located 97 miles (157 kilometers) ESE of KDD.
- Because of Khuzdar Airport's high elevation of 4,012 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at KDD. Combined with a high temperature, this could make KDD a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- The furthest airport from Khuzdar Airport (KDD) is Mataveri International Airport (IPC), which is nearly antipodal to Khuzdar Airport (meaning Khuzdar Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Mataveri International Airport), and is located 12,192 miles (19,620 kilometers) away in Easter Island, Chile.
