About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Bagdad Airport (BGT), Bagdad, Arizona, United States and Tauranga Airport (TRG), Tauranga, New Zealand would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,738 miles (or 10,844 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 Bagdad Airport and Tauranga 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 Bagdad Airport and Tauranga Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

  • The furthest airport from Bagdad Airport (BGT) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,390 miles (18,330 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
  • Because of Bagdad Airport's high elevation of 4,183 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BGT. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BGT a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
