About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Loakan Airport (BAG), Baguio City, Philippines and Edward River Airport (EDR), Edward River, Queensland, Australia would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,592 miles (or 4,172 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 Loakan Airport and Edward River 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 Loakan Airport and Edward River Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Loakan Airport (BAG):

  • In addition to being known as "Loakan Airport", another name for BAG is "Paliparan ng Loakan Pagtayaban ti Loakan".
  • Because of Loakan Airport's high elevation of 4,251 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BAG. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BAG a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • Loakan Airport (BAG) currently has only 1 runway.
  • Loakan Airport handled 9,805 passengers last year.
  • The furthest airport from Loakan Airport (BAG) is Concepción Airport (CEP), which is nearly antipodal to Loakan Airport (meaning Loakan Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Concepción Airport), and is located 12,261 miles (19,731 kilometers) away in Concepción, Santa Cruz, Bolivia.
  • The closest airport to Loakan Airport (BAG) is San Fernando Airport (SFE), which is located 26 miles (42 kilometers) NW of BAG.

This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
