About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Dimbokro Airport (DIM), Dimbokro, Côte d'Ivoire and Mokhotlong Airport (MKH), Mokhotlong, Lesotho would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,344 miles (or 5,381 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 Dimbokro Airport and Mokhotlong 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 Dimbokro Airport and Mokhotlong Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Dimbokro Airport (DIM):
- Because of Dimbokro Airport's relatively low elevation of 344 feet, planes can take off or land at Dimbokro 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 closest airport to Dimbokro Airport (DIM) is Yamoussoukro Airport (ASK), which is located 53 miles (85 kilometers) WNW of DIM.
- The furthest airport from Dimbokro Airport (DIM) is Funafuti International Airport (FUN), which is nearly antipodal to Dimbokro Airport (meaning Dimbokro Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Funafuti International Airport), and is located 12,144 miles (19,544 kilometers) away in Funafuti, Tuvalu.

- The furthest airport from Mokhotlong Airport (MKH) is Hana Airport (HNM), which is located 11,770 miles (18,942 kilometers) away in Hana, Hawaii, United States.
- Because of Mokhotlong Airport's high elevation of 7,200 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at MKH. Combined with a high temperature, this could make MKH a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
