About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Kongolo Airport (KOO), Kongolo, Democratic Republic of the Congo and Mbeya Airport (MBI), Mbeya, Tanzania would travel a Great Circle distance of 506 miles (or 814 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 Kongolo Airport and Mbeya Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

  • The closest airport to Mbeya Airport (MBI) is Karonga Airport (KGJ), which is located 77 miles (124 kilometers) SSE of MBI.
