About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Máximo Gómez Airport (AVI), Ciego de Ávila, Cuba and Harare International Airport (HRE), Harare, Zimbabwe would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,914 miles (or 12,737 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 Máximo Gómez Airport and Harare International 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 Máximo Gómez Airport and Harare International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Máximo Gómez Airport (AVI):

  • Máximo Gómez Airport (AVI) currently has only 1 runway.
  • Because of Máximo Gómez Airport's relatively low elevation of 335 feet, planes can take off or land at Máximo Gómez 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 Máximo Gómez Airport (AVI) is Cocos (Keeling) Island Airport (CCK), which is located 11,698 miles (18,826 kilometers) away in Cocos Islands, Australia.
  • In addition to being known as "Máximo Gómez Airport", another name for AVI is "Aeropuerto Máximo Gómez".

  • Harare International Airport (HRE) currently has only 1 runway.
  • Because of Harare International Airport's high elevation of 4,887 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at HRE.
