About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between South Bimini Airport (BIM), Bimini, Bahamas and Shennongjia Hongping Airport (HPG), Shennongjia, Hubei, China would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,425 miles (or 13,559 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 South Bimini Airport and Shennongjia Hongping 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 South Bimini Airport and Shennongjia Hongping Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about South Bimini Airport (BIM):
- The closest airport to South Bimini Airport (BIM) is Cat Cay Airport (CXY), which is located only 10 miles (16 kilometers) S of BIM.
- South Bimini Airport (BIM) currently has only 1 runway.
- The furthest airport from South Bimini Airport (BIM) is Shark Bay Airport (MJK), which is located 11,638 miles (18,730 kilometers) away in Monkey Mia, Western Australia, Australia.
- Because of South Bimini Airport's relatively low elevation of 10 feet, planes can take off or land at South Bimini 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.
Facts about Shennongjia Hongping Airport (HPG):
- The furthest airport from Shennongjia Hongping Airport (HPG) is Domingo Faustino Sarmiento Airport (UAQ), which is nearly antipodal to Shennongjia Hongping Airport (meaning Shennongjia Hongping Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Domingo Faustino Sarmiento Airport), and is located 12,364 miles (19,898 kilometers) away in San Juan Province, Argentina.
- Shennongjia Hongping Airport (HPG) currently has only 1 runway.
- In addition to being known as "Shennongjia Hongping Airport", other names for HPG include "神农架红坪机场" and "Shénnóngjià Hóngpíng Jīchǎng".
- The closest airport to Shennongjia Hongping Airport (HPG) is Yichang Sanxia Airport (YIH), which is located 101 miles (162 kilometers) SE of HPG.
- Because of Shennongjia Hongping Airport's high elevation of 8,465 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at HPG. Combined with a high temperature, this could make HPG a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
