Nonstop flight route between Sindal, Denmark and Bogotá, Colombia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Sindal Airport (CNL), Sindal, Denmark and El Dorado International Airport (BOG), Bogotá, Colombia would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,736 miles (or 9,231 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 Sindal Airport and El Dorado 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 Sindal Airport and El Dorado International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Sindal Airport (CNL) currently has only 1 runway.
• The furthest airport from Sindal Airport (CNL) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,447 miles (18,423 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
