Nonstop flight route between Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei and Ardabil, Iran:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Brunei International Airport (BWN), Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei and Ardabil Airport (ADU), Ardabil, Iran would travel a Great Circle distance of 4,739 miles (or 7,627 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 Brunei International Airport and Ardabil 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 Brunei International Airport and Ardabil Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Brunei International Airport (BWN):

• Commercial air transport in Brunei began in 1953, with the establishment of air service links connecting Bandar Seri Begawan with Anduki in the Belait District.
• Brunei International Airport (BWN) currently has only 1 runway.
• In addition to being known as "Brunei International Airport", other names for BWN include "لاڤڠن تربڠ انتارابڠسا بروني" and "Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Brunei".
• Because of Brunei International Airport's relatively low elevation of 73 feet, planes can take off or land at Brunei International 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.
• The growth in popularity of air travel in the 1970s resulted in a significant increase in civil aviation.
