About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Humera Airport (HUE), Humera, Ethiopia and Goma Airport (GOM), Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,192 miles (or 1,918 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 Humera Airport and Goma Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Goma Airport (GOM):
- Goma International Airport is an airport serving Goma, a city in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
- Goma Airport (GOM) currently has only 1 runway.

- The furthest airport from Goma Airport (GOM) is Cassidy International Airport (CXI), which is located 11,981 miles (19,282 kilometers) away in Christmas Island, Kiribati.
- Because of Goma Airport's high elevation of 5,089 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at GOM. Combined with a high temperature, this could make GOM a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- On 19 November 2009, Compagnie Africaine d'Aviation Flight 3711, operated by McDonnell Douglas MD-82 9Q-CAB overran the runway on landing, suffering substantial damage.
