About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport (DIL), Dili, East Timor (Timor-Leste) and Jiayuguan Airport (JGN), Jiayuguan, Gansu, China would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,769 miles (or 6,065 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 Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport and Jiayuguan 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 Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport and Jiayuguan Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport (DIL):

  • The furthest airport from Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport (DIL) is Zorg en Hoop Airport (ORG), which is nearly antipodal to Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport (meaning Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Zorg en Hoop Airport), and is located 12,242 miles (19,701 kilometers) away in Paramaribo, Suriname.
  • Because of Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport's relatively low elevation of 25 feet, planes can take off or land at Presidente Nicolau Lobato 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.
  • Under Portuguese rule, Baucau Airport, which has a much longer runway, was used for international flights, but following its integration to Indonesia in 1975, this was taken over by the Indonesian military and closed to civilian traffic.
  • Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport (DIL) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The airport was placed under the control of the Australian Defence Force during Operation Astute in May 2006.
  • The closest airport to Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport (DIL) is Baucau Airport (BCH), which is located 60 miles (96 kilometers) E of DIL.
  • In addition to being known as "Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport", another name for DIL is "Aeroporto Internacional Presidente Nicolau Lobato".
  • Until recently, Dili's airport runway has been unable to accommodate aircraft larger than the Boeing 737 or C-130 Hercules, but in January 2008, the Portuguese charter airline EuroAtlantic Airways operated a direct flight from Lisbon using a Boeing 757, carrying 140 members of the Guarda Nacional Republicana.

Facts about Jiayuguan Airport (JGN):

  • The closest airport to Jiayuguan Airport (JGN) is Zhangye Ganzhou Airport (YZY), which is located 144 miles (232 kilometers) ESE of JGN.
  • In addition to being known as "Jiayuguan Airport", other names for JGN include "嘉峪关机场" and "Jiāyùguān Jīchǎng".
  • The furthest airport from Jiayuguan Airport (JGN) is Pupelde Airfield (ZUD), which is nearly antipodal to Jiayuguan Airport (meaning Jiayuguan Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Pupelde Airfield), and is located 12,003 miles (19,316 kilometers) away in Ancud, Los Lagos Region, Chile.
  • Jiayuguan Airport (JGN) currently has only 1 runway.
  • Because of Jiayuguan Airport's high elevation of 5,112 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at JGN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make JGN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
