About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Bayankhongor Airport (BYN), Bayankhongor, Mongolia and Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,944 miles (or 4,738 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 Bayankhongor Airport and Abu Dhabi 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 Bayankhongor Airport and Abu Dhabi International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Bayankhongor Airport (BYN):
- The closest airport to Bayankhongor Airport (BYN) is Arvaykheer Airport (AVK), which is located 101 miles (162 kilometers) E of BYN.
- Because of Bayankhongor Airport's high elevation of 6,085 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BYN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BYN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- Bayankhongor Airport (BYN) has 2 runways.
- Bayankhongor Airport handled 2,192 passengers last year.
- The furthest airport from Bayankhongor Airport (BYN) is Cochrane Airfield (LGR), which is nearly antipodal to Bayankhongor Airport (meaning Bayankhongor Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Cochrane Airfield), and is located 12,110 miles (19,490 kilometers) away in Cochrane, Chile.
Facts about Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH):
- The general exterior of the terminal resembles that of the new terminal being built at Mumbai Airport because it was designed by the same architect, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
- The airport, 16.5 nautical miles southeast of Abu Dhabi city, is the second largest in the UAE, serving over 12 million passengers in 2010.
- The new Terminal 3, a AED 1 billion interim facility, was designed to allow for the airport's passenger growth before the planned opening of the new Midfield Terminal on July 17, 2017 at 7 AM.
- In addition to being known as "Abu Dhabi International Airport", another name for AUH is "مطار أبوظبي الدولي".
- Abu Dhabi International Airport is an airport in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates.

- Development work has started on a new passenger terminal, the main building and centerpiece of the new airport, to be between the two runways and known as the Midfield Terminal.
- Because of Abu Dhabi International Airport's relatively low elevation of 88 feet, planes can take off or land at Abu Dhabi 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.
