About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between José Coleto Airport (JPR), Ji-Paraná, Rondônia, Brazil and Luena Airport (LUO), Luena, Moxico Province, Angola would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,516 miles (or 8,877 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 José Coleto Airport and Luena 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 José Coleto Airport and Luena Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

- In addition to being known as "José Coleto Airport", other names for JPR include "Aeroporto José Coleto" and "SBJI".
- Because of José Coleto Airport's relatively low elevation of 597 feet, planes can take off or land at José Coleto 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.
