Nonstop flight route between Bisbee, Arizona, United States and Mataram (near Praya), Lombok, Indonesia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Bisbee Municipal Airport (BSQ), Bisbee, Arizona, United States and Lombok International Airport (LOP), Mataram (near Praya), Lombok, Indonesia would travel a Great Circle distance of 9,092 miles (or 14,632 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 Bisbee Municipal Airport and Lombok International 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 Bisbee Municipal Airport and Lombok International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• The closest airport to Bisbee Municipal Airport (BSQ) is Bisbee Douglas International Airport (DUG), which is located only 18 miles (29 kilometers) ENE of BSQ.
• Bisbee Municipal Airport (BSQ) has 2 runways.
• Because of Bisbee Municipal Airport's high elevation of 4,780 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BSQ. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BSQ a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• In addition to being known as "Bisbee Municipal Airport", another name for BSQ is "P04".
• The furthest airport from Bisbee Municipal Airport (BSQ) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,532 miles (18,558 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
