About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Bali Airport (BAJ), Bali, West New Britain, Papua New Guinea and Lauriston Airport (CRU), Carriacou Island, Grenada would travel a Great Circle distance of 4,886 miles (or 7,863 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 Bali Airport and Lauriston 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 Bali Airport and Lauriston Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Bali Airport (BAJ):
- Because of Bali Airport's high elevation of 4,437 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BAJ. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BAJ a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- The closest airport to Bali Airport (BAJ) is Bali Airport (BLC), which is located only 0 mile (0 kilometer) N of BAJ.
- In addition to being known as "Bali Airport", other names for BAJ include "Bali Airport (Bali)", "BLC" and "FKKG".
