About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Esperance Airport (EPR), Esperance, Australia and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (BJC), Denver, Colorado, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 9,835 miles (or 15,827 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 Esperance Airport and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan 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 Esperance Airport and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Esperance Airport (EPR):
- Esperance Airport (EPR) has 2 runways.
- The furthest airport from Esperance Airport (EPR) is L.F. Wade International Airport (BDA), which is nearly antipodal to Esperance Airport (meaning Esperance Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from L.F. Wade International Airport), and is located 12,049 miles (19,392 kilometers) away in Ferry Reach (near Hamilton), Bermuda.
- The closest airport to Esperance Airport (EPR) is Kambalda Airport (KDB), which is located 173 miles (278 kilometers) N of EPR.
- Because of Esperance Airport's relatively low elevation of 470 feet, planes can take off or land at Esperance 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.
Facts about Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (BJC):
- This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a reliever airport.
- The furthest airport from Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (BJC) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 10,886 miles (17,519 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
- The airport was formerly a hub for Pet Airways before ceasing all flights in early 2013.
- Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (BJC) has 3 runways.
- The closest airport to Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (BJC) is Boulder Municipal Airport (WBU), which is located only 11 miles (17 kilometers) NNW of BJC.
- Because of Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport's high elevation of 5,673 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BJC. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BJC a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
