Nonstop flight route between Bogotá, Colombia and Milton Keynes, England, United Kingdom:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between El Dorado International Airport (BOG), Bogotá, Colombia and Milton Keynes Airport (KYN), Milton Keynes, England, United Kingdom would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,259 miles (or 8,464 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 El Dorado International Airport and Milton Keynes 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 El Dorado International Airport and Milton Keynes Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about El Dorado International Airport (BOG):

• In addition to being known as "El Dorado International Airport", another name for BOG is "Aeropuerto Internacional El Dorado".
• 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.
• New construction and renovations are presently underway in the terminal area.
• The base acquired the status of Operations and Logistics Support Center by FAC Directive No.
• 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 third milestone of the project began in late November 2009.
• The closest airport to El Dorado International Airport (BOG) is Santiago Vila Airport (GIR), which is located 54 miles (86 kilometers) WSW of BOG.
• El Dorado International Airport (BOG) has 2 runways.
• In 1996 the base opened new ground accesses through an area devoted to the Military Transport Aviation Command.
• 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.

Facts about Milton Keynes Airport (KYN):

• The Corporation's strongly modernist designs featured regularly in the magazines Architectural Design and the Architects' Journal.
• Milton Keynes Partnership was disbanded in 2011, holding its last meeting in March of that year.
• Since the radical plan form and large scale of Milton Keynes attracted international attention, early phases of development include work by celebrated architects, including Sir Richard MacCormac, Lord Norman Foster, Henning Larsen, Ralph Erskine, John Winter, and Martin Richardson.
• The furthest airport from Milton Keynes Airport (KYN) is Dunedin International Airport (DUD), which is located 11,849 miles (19,069 kilometers) away in Dunedin, Otago, New Zealand.
• There is a separate cycleway network, the "redways", that runs through the grid-squares and often runs alongside the grid-road network.
• The closest airport to Milton Keynes Airport (KYN) is Sywell Aerodrome (ORM), which is located only 18 miles (30 kilometers) N of KYN.
• Because of Milton Keynes Airport's relatively low elevation of 0 feet, planes can take off or land at Milton Keynes 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.
