Nonstop flight route between Aguascalientes, Mexico and Pärnu, Estonia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Jesús Terán Peredo International Airport (AGU), Aguascalientes, Mexico and Pärnu Airport (EPU), Pärnu, Estonia would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,125 miles (or 9,857 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 Jesús Terán Peredo International Airport and Pärnu 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 Jesús Terán Peredo International Airport and Pärnu Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• The furthest airport from Jesús Terán Peredo International Airport (AGU) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,502 miles (18,511 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
• Because of Jesús Terán Peredo International Airport's high elevation of 6,112 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at AGU. Combined with a high temperature, this could make AGU a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
