About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (AMD), Ahmedabad, India and Iringa / Nduli Airport (IRI), Iringa, Tanzania would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,275 miles (or 5,270 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 Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport and Iringa / Nduli 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 Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport and Iringa / Nduli Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

- The furthest airport from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (AMD) is Mataveri International Airport (IPC), which is nearly antipodal to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (meaning Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Mataveri International Airport), and is located 12,126 miles (19,516 kilometers) away in Easter Island, Chile.
- Terminal 1 has 30 check-in counters and has an area of 45,000 m2.
- Because of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport's relatively low elevation of 189 feet, planes can take off or land at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International 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 closest airport to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (AMD) is Civil Airport Harni (BDQ), which is located 64 miles (103 kilometers) SE of AMD.
