Nonstop flight route between Cairo, Egypt and Ebolowa, Cameroon:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Cairo International Airport (CAI), Cairo, Egypt and Ebolowa Airport (EBW), Ebolowa, Cameroon would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,301 miles (or 3,703 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 Cairo International Airport and Ebolowa Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
