Nonstop flight route between Camiri, Bolivia and Los Alamos, New Mexico, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Camiri Airport (CAM), Camiri, Bolivia and Los Alamos Airport (LAM), Los Alamos, New Mexico, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 4,766 miles (or 7,671 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 Camiri Airport and Los Alamos 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 Camiri Airport and Los Alamos Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Because of Los Alamos Airport's high elevation of 7,171 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at LAM. Combined with a high temperature, this could make LAM a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
