About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Easterwood Airport (CLL), College Station, Texas, United States and Awasa International Airport (AWA), Awasa, Ethiopia would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,477 miles (or 13,642 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 Easterwood Airport and Awasa 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 Easterwood Airport and Awasa International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Easterwood Airport (CLL):
- In May 1940 the airport opened, named for Navy Lt.
- The airport is equipped with two 5,150-foot runways, one 7,000-foot paved, all weather runway, an approach lighting system, an FAA control tower, FAA radio communication and an OmniRange-ILS Navigation Aid.
- Because of Easterwood Airport's relatively low elevation of 321 feet, planes can take off or land at Easterwood 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 furthest airport from Easterwood Airport (CLL) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 10,968 miles (17,652 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
- The closest airport to Easterwood Airport (CLL) is Coulter Field (CFD), which is located only 9 miles (14 kilometers) NNE of CLL.
- Easterwood Airport (CLL) has 3 runways.
Facts about Awasa International Airport (AWA):
- Awasa International Airport (AWA) currently has only 1 runway.
- The closest airport to Awasa International Airport (AWA) is Arba Minch Airport (AMH), which is located 95 miles (152 kilometers) SW of AWA.
- The furthest airport from Awasa International Airport (AWA) is Atuona Airport (AUQ), which is nearly antipodal to Awasa International Airport (meaning Awasa International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Atuona Airport), and is located 12,184 miles (19,609 kilometers) away in Atuona, Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia.
- Because of Awasa International Airport's high elevation of 5,149 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at AWA. Combined with a high temperature, this could make AWA a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
