About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Guasdualito Airport (GDO), Guasdualito, Venezuela and Qiemo Airport (IQM), Qiemo, Xinjiang, China would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,951 miles (or 14,406 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 Guasdualito Airport and Qiemo 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 Guasdualito Airport and Qiemo Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Guasdualito Airport (GDO):
- The closest airport to Guasdualito Airport (GDO) is Santiago Pérez Quiroz Airport (AUC), which is located only 10 miles (16 kilometers) S of GDO.
- Because of Guasdualito Airport's relatively low elevation of 426 feet, planes can take off or land at Guasdualito 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 furthest airport from Guasdualito Airport (GDO) is Purwokerto / Wirasaba Airport (PWL), which is nearly antipodal to Guasdualito Airport (meaning Guasdualito Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Purwokerto / Wirasaba Airport), and is located 12,416 miles (19,981 kilometers) away in Wirasaba, Central Java, Indonesia.
- Guasdualito Airport (GDO) currently has only 1 runway.
Facts about Qiemo Airport (IQM):
- The closest airport to Qiemo Airport (IQM) is Korla Airport (KRL), which is located 242 miles (389 kilometers) N of IQM.
- Qiemo Airport (IQM) currently has only 1 runway.
- Because of Qiemo Airport's high elevation of 4,108 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at IQM. Combined with a high temperature, this could make IQM a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- In addition to being known as "Qiemo Airport", other names for IQM include "且末机场" and "Qiěmò Jīchǎng".
