About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Altamira Airport (ATM), Altamira, Pará, Brazil and Mbarara Airport (MBQ), Mbarara, Uganda would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,723 miles (or 9,211 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 Altamira Airport and Mbarara 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 Altamira Airport and Mbarara Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Altamira Airport (ATM):

  • Altamira Airport (ATM) currently has only 1 runway.
  • Altamira Airport handled 151,626 passengers last year.
  • Because of Altamira Airport's relatively low elevation of 368 feet, planes can take off or land at Altamira 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 Altamira Airport (ATM) is Serra do Areão Airport (MEU), which is located 165 miles (265 kilometers) N of ATM.
  • The furthest airport from Altamira Airport (ATM) is Melangguane Airport (MNA), which is nearly antipodal to Altamira Airport (meaning Altamira Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Melangguane Airport), and is located 12,346 miles (19,869 kilometers) away in Melangguane, North Sulawesi, Indonesia.
  • The airport was inaugurated in 1979.
  • In addition to being known as "Altamira Airport", another name for ATM is "Aeroporto de Altamira".

  • The furthest airport from Mbarara Airport (MBQ) is Cassidy International Airport (CXI), which is located 11,879 miles (19,117 kilometers) away in Christmas Island, Kiribati.
  • Because of Mbarara Airport's high elevation of 4,600 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at MBQ. Combined with a high temperature, this could make MBQ a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • Mbarara Airport (MBQ) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The closest airport to Mbarara Airport (MBQ) is Kasese Airport (KSE), which is located 62 miles (100 kilometers) NNW of MBQ.
