About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR), Florence, Italy and Crater Lake- Klamath Regional Airport (LMT), Klamath Falls, Oregon, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,821 miles (or 9,368 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 Florence Airport, Peretola and Crater Lake- Klamath Regional 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 Florence Airport, Peretola and Crater Lake- Klamath Regional Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR):
- On December 5, 2012 Vueling has announced the opening of a new base of operations from which to fly to Florence to several destinations in Europe.
- Peretola was a great field where airplanes landed and took off without any mandatory direction until the Ministry of Aeronautics decided to enlarge and upgrade the now aged flight field.
- In 1992 the building now dedicated to arrivals, constructed by AdF, was inaugurated.
- Because of Florence Airport, Peretola's relatively low elevation of 144 feet, planes can take off or land at Florence Airport, Peretola 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.
- In addition to being known as "Florence Airport, Peretola", another name for FLR is "Aeroporto di Firenze-Peretola".
- Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR) currently has only 1 runway.

- Klamath Falls Airport covers 1,166 acres at an elevation of 4,095 feet.
- Because of Crater Lake- Klamath Regional Airport's high elevation of 4,095 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at LMT. Combined with a high temperature, this could make LMT a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- Crater Lake- Klamath Regional Airport (LMT) has 2 runways.
