About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Bisbee Douglas International Airport (DUG), Bisbee/Douglas, Arizona, United States and Avalon Airport (AVV), Avalon, Victoria, Australia would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,334 miles (or 13,413 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 Bisbee Douglas International Airport and Avalon 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 Bisbee Douglas International Airport and Avalon Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

  • The airport covers 3,000 acres at an elevation of 4,154 feet.
  • American Airlines stopped at DUG until Apache took over in 1965.
  • Because of Bisbee Douglas International Airport's high elevation of 4,154 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at DUG. Combined with a high temperature, this could make DUG a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • Bisbee Douglas International Airport (DUG) has 2 runways.
  • The closest airport to Bisbee Douglas International Airport (DUG) is Douglas Municipal Airport (DGL), which is located only 10 miles (17 kilometers) SSE of DUG.
