About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport (AJU), Aracaju, Sergipe, Brazil and Austin Airport (ASQ), Austin, Nevada, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,183 miles (or 9,951 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 Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport and Austin 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 Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport and Austin Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport (AJU):
- Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport (AJU) currently has only 1 runway.
- In 1975 Infraero became the administrator of the airport, which later invested in further extension of the runway and in great enlargement of the passenger terminal.
- Because of Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport's relatively low elevation of 23 feet, planes can take off or land at Aracaju–Santa Maria 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 Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport (AJU) is Guam International Airport (GUM), which is nearly antipodal to Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport (meaning Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Guam International Airport), and is located 12,223 miles (19,671 kilometers) away in Hagåtña, Guam.
- Although it had been in operation since the beginning of the 1950s, the official inauguration of the airport took place on 19 January 1958.
- In addition to being known as "Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport", another name for AJU is "Aeroporto Aracaju–Santa Maria".
