Nonstop flight route between Andulo, Angola and Labuan Bajo, Flores Island, Indonesia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Aeroporto de Andulo (ANL), Andulo, Angola and Komodo Airport (LBJ), Labuan Bajo, Flores Island, Indonesia would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,982 miles (or 11,236 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 Aeroporto de Andulo and Komodo 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 Aeroporto de Andulo and Komodo Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Aeroporto de Andulo (ANL):

• Because of Aeroporto de Andulo's high elevation of 5,446 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ANL. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ANL a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• In addition to being known as "Aeroporto de Andulo", another name for ANL is "Aeroporto de Andulo (Andulo)".
• The furthest airport from Aeroporto de Andulo (ANL) is Johnston Atoll Airport (JON), which is located 11,883 miles (19,123 kilometers) away in Johnston Atoll, U.S. Minor Outlying Islands.
