Nonstop flight route between Enarotali, Indonesia and Celle, Germany:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Enarotali Airport (EWI), Enarotali, Indonesia and Celle Air Base (ZCN), Celle, Germany would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,907 miles (or 12,725 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 Enarotali Airport and Celle Air Base, 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 Enarotali Airport and Celle Air Base. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Because of Enarotali Airport's high elevation of 6,122 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at EWI. Combined with a high temperature, this could make EWI a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• In addition to being known as "Enarotali Airport", another name for EWI is "Bandar Udara Enarotali".
• The furthest airport from Enarotali Airport (EWI) is Marechal Cunha Machado International Airport (Tirirical) (SLZ), which is located 11,985 miles (19,288 kilometers) away in São Luís, Brazil.
