About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Cozumel International Airport (CZM), Cozumel, Quintana Roo, Mexico and City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (COS), Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,647 miles (or 2,651 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 Cozumel International Airport and City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Cozumel International Airport (CZM):
- In addition to being known as "Cozumel International Airport", another name for CZM is "Aeropuerto Internacional de Cozumel".
- Because of Cozumel International Airport's relatively low elevation of 15 feet, planes can take off or land at Cozumel 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.

- Cozumel International Airport (CZM) has 2 runways.
