About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Kandi Airport (KDC), Kandi, Benin and Kasama Airport (KAA), Kasama, Zambia would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,435 miles (or 3,918 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 Kandi Airport and Kasama Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Kandi Airport (KDC):
- Kandi Airport (KDC) currently has only 1 runway.
- In addition to being known as "Kandi Airport", another name for KDC is "Kandi Airport (Kandi)".
- Because of Kandi Airport's relatively low elevation of 958 feet, planes can take off or land at Kandi 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 Kandi Airport (KDC) is Wallis Island (WLS), which is nearly antipodal to Kandi Airport (meaning Kandi Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Wallis Island), and is located 12,279 miles (19,761 kilometers) away in Wallis and Futuna Islands.
- The closest airport to Kandi Airport (KDC) is Diapaga Airport (DIP), which is located 101 miles (162 kilometers) NW of KDC.

- Kasama Airport (KAA) has 2 runways.
