Nonstop flight route between Pärnu, Estonia and Bogotá, Colombia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Pärnu Airport (EPU), Pärnu, Estonia and El Dorado International Airport (BOG), Bogotá, Colombia would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,252 miles (or 10,061 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 Pärnu Airport and El Dorado International 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 Pärnu Airport and El Dorado International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• In October 1937 Pärnu town council designated an area of 0.28 km² for the building of an airport.
• In addition to being known as "Pärnu Airport", another name for EPU is "Pärnu lennujaam".
• The furthest airport from Pärnu Airport (EPU) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,091 miles (17,848 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
• Pärnu Airport (EPU) currently has only 1 runway.
• Pärnu Airport is an airport in Estonia.
• The closest airport to Pärnu Airport (EPU) is Tallinn Airport (TLL), which is located 70 miles (112 kilometers) N of EPU.
• The airport is often visited by private aircraft from Scandinavia and other European countries.
• Because of Pärnu Airport's relatively low elevation of 46 feet, planes can take off or land at Pärnu 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 El Dorado International Airport (BOG):

• The closest airport to El Dorado International Airport (BOG) is Santiago Vila Airport (GIR), which is located 54 miles (86 kilometers) WSW of BOG.
• The hub also features facilities for easier transits, such as exclusive check-in counters for travelers in transit, buses for internal transportation between Puente Aéreo and El Dorado terminals, and a special lounge for international transit passengers to avoid having to go through Colombian customs and immigration between transits.
• The furthest airport from El Dorado International Airport (BOG) is Gunung Batin Airport (AKQ), which is nearly antipodal to El Dorado International Airport (meaning El Dorado International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Gunung Batin Airport), and is located 12,394 miles (19,946 kilometers) away in Astraksetra, Indonesia.
• The third milestone of the project began in late November 2009.
• T1 has several check-in counter areas, check-in kiosks and expanded immigration lanes compared to the previous terminal.
• El Dorado International Airport (BOG) has 2 runways.
• Because of El Dorado International Airport's high elevation of 8,361 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BOG. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BOG a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• In addition to being known as "El Dorado International Airport", another name for BOG is "Aeropuerto Internacional El Dorado".
• On 3 September 1932 it was launched the first Military Transport Service in Colombia, when a Junkers F-13 carried Colonel Luis Acevedo and his party to Leticia.
