About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between El Alcaraván Airport (EYP), Yopal, Colombia and Andahuaylas Airport (ANS), Andahuaylas, Peru would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,317 miles (or 2,119 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 El Alcaraván Airport and Andahuaylas Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about El Alcaraván Airport (EYP):
- In September 2006, the Camara de Comercio de Casanare asked the Ministry of Transport to make El Alcaravan an international airport, because it has all the facilities that are needed, it would increase the economy of the department, and it would let the flights that come from North America and South America refuel.
- The closest airport to El Alcaraván Airport (EYP) is Aguaclara Airport (ACL), which is located 58 miles (93 kilometers) SW of EYP.
- In addition to being known as "El Alcaraván Airport", another name for EYP is "Aeropuerto El Alcaraván".
- El Alcaraván Airport (EYP) currently has only 1 runway.
- The furthest airport from El Alcaraván Airport (EYP) is Halim Perdanakusuma Airport (HLP), which is nearly antipodal to El Alcaraván Airport (meaning El Alcaraván Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Halim Perdanakusuma Airport), and is located 12,355 miles (19,883 kilometers) away in Jakarta, Indonesia.
- Because of El Alcaraván Airport's relatively low elevation of 1 feet, planes can take off or land at El Alcaraván 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.
- The passenger's airlines that are currently operating flights from and to the city of Yopal are LAN Airlines Colombia, Avianca and EasyFly, and there were others like Satena that ceased operations in this route.
