Nonstop flight route between Española, New Mexico, United States and San Diego, California, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO), Española, New Mexico, United States and San Diego International Airport (SAN), San Diego, California, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 674 miles (or 1,085 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 Ohkay Owingeh Airport and San Diego International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO):

• Because of Ohkay Owingeh Airport's high elevation of 5,790 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ESO. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ESO a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• The closest airport to Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO) is Los Alamos Airport (LAM), which is located only 16 miles (26 kilometers) SW of ESO.
• Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO) has 2 runways.
• In addition to being known as "Ohkay Owingeh Airport", another name for ESO is "E14".
• The furthest airport from Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,142 miles (17,931 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.

Facts about San Diego International Airport (SAN):

• The closest airport to San Diego International Airport (SAN) is NAS North Island (NZY), which is located only 3 miles (5 kilometers) SSW of SAN.
• The furthest airport from San Diego International Airport (SAN) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,540 miles (18,571 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
• The airport was the first federally certified airfield to serve all aircraft types, including seaplanes.

• Plans also outline dedicated I-5 on and off-ramps, and an 'intermodal transit hub' including a Coaster/Amtrak station, a stop for the San Diego Trolley system, and eventually a center for the southern terminus of the California High Speed Rail line.
• In addition to being known as "San Diego International Airport", another name for SAN is "Lindbergh Field".
• Inspired by Lindbergh's flight and excited to have made his plane, the city of San Diego passed a bond issue in 1928 for the construction of a two-runway municipal airport.
• Landing at the airport from the east offers closeup views of skyscrapers, Petco Park, and the Coronado Bridge from the left side of the aircraft.
• The busiest route by flight count is to Los Angeles with 27 daily round trips on United Express, American Eagle, and Delta Connection.
• Because of San Diego International Airport's relatively low elevation of 17 feet, planes can take off or land at San Diego International 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.
• San Diego International Airport (SAN) currently has only 1 runway.
