Nonstop flight route between Bogotá, Colombia and Bryan, Texas, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between El Dorado International Airport (BOG), Bogotá, Colombia and Coulter Field (CFD), Bryan, Texas, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,305 miles (or 3,709 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 relatively short distance between El Dorado International Airport and Coulter Field, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about El Dorado International Airport (BOG):

• El Dorado International Airport (BOG) has 2 runways.
• Because of El Dorado International Airport's high elevation of 8,361 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BOG. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BOG a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• The closest airport to El Dorado International Airport (BOG) is Santiago Vila Airport (GIR), which is located 54 miles (86 kilometers) WSW of BOG.
• In 1977, the Military Transport Aviation Command was named after the Colombian aviation pioneer, Honorary Brigadier General Camilo Daza Alvarez.
• In addition to being known as "El Dorado International Airport", another name for BOG is "Aeropuerto Internacional El Dorado".
• On 19 September 2007, the implementation of Milestone 1 of the plan for modernization and expansion of the airport began.
• The "Puente Aéreo" is currently Terminal 2.
• The furthest airport from El Dorado International Airport (BOG) is Gunung Batin Airport (AKQ), which is nearly antipodal to El Dorado International Airport (meaning El Dorado International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Gunung Batin Airport), and is located 12,394 miles (19,946 kilometers) away in Astraksetra, Indonesia.
• The hub also features facilities for easier transits, such as exclusive check-in counters for travelers in transit, buses for internal transportation between Puente Aéreo and El Dorado terminals, and a special lounge for international transit passengers to avoid having to go through Colombian customs and immigration between transits.
• The process began with the creation of the new terminal.
• This allowed them to streamline their operations by using space previously assigned to customs and immigration for passenger gates and lounges.

Facts about Coulter Field (CFD):

• The furthest airport from Coulter Field (CFD) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 10,963 miles (17,643 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
• The closest airport to Coulter Field (CFD) is Easterwood Airport (CLL), which is located only 9 miles (14 kilometers) SSW of CFD.
• Coulter Field (CFD) has 2 runways.
• Coulter Field covers an area of 256 acres at an elevation of 367 feet above mean sea level.
• Because of Coulter Field's relatively low elevation of 367 feet, planes can take off or land at Coulter Field 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.
