About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Kharkhorin Airport (KHR), Kharkhorin, Mongolia and Meghauli Airport (MEY), Meghauli, Nepal would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,690 miles (or 2,720 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 Kharkhorin Airport and Meghauli Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Kharkhorin Airport (KHR):
- Because of Kharkhorin Airport's high elevation of 4,759 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at KHR. Combined with a high temperature, this could make KHR a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- The furthest airport from Kharkhorin Airport (KHR) is Cochrane Airfield (LGR), which is nearly antipodal to Kharkhorin Airport (meaning Kharkhorin Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Cochrane Airfield), and is located 12,222 miles (19,669 kilometers) away in Cochrane, Chile.

Facts about Meghauli Airport (MEY):
- The closest airport to Meghauli Airport (MEY) is Bharatpur Airport (BHR), which is located only 14 miles (23 kilometers) ENE of MEY.
- Because of Meghauli Airport's relatively low elevation of 600 feet, planes can take off or land at Meghauli 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 Meghauli Airport (MEY) is Mataveri International Airport (IPC), which is located 11,599 miles (18,667 kilometers) away in Easter Island, Chile.
