Nonstop flight route between Jebel Ali, Dubai, United Arab Emirates and Bajura, Nepal:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), Jebel Ali, Dubai, United Arab Emirates and Bajura Airport (BJU), Bajura, Nepal would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,655 miles (or 2,663 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 Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International Airport and Bajura Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC):

• At the heart of this huge new community is the Al Maktoum International Airport, planned as the world's largest passenger and cargo hub, spans over 220 square kilometres, is ten times larger than Dubai International Airport which covers an area of 34 square kilometres and Dubai Cargo Village combined.
• Dubai World Central—the whole complex, not just the international airport—will have a total of 100,000 parking slots for automobile vehicles for its employees, Dubai residents, tourists, and other users.

• The A380-enabled, 4,900 m × 60 m runway was completed within its projected 600 day construction period and subsequently underwent tests over the following six to eight months in order to fulfil its CAT III-C requirements.
• The furthest airport from Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) is Totegegie Airport (GMR), which is located 11,789 miles (18,973 kilometers) away in Mangareva, Gambier Islands, French Polynesia.
