About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Nakhon Phanom Airport (KOP), Nakhon Phanom, Thailand and Aeroporto de Andulo (ANL), Andulo, Angola would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,320 miles (or 10,171 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 Nakhon Phanom Airport and Aeroporto de Andulo, 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 Nakhon Phanom Airport and Aeroporto de Andulo. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Nakhon Phanom Airport (KOP):
- The furthest airport from Nakhon Phanom Airport (KOP) is Maria Reiche Neuman Airport (NZC), which is nearly antipodal to Nakhon Phanom Airport (meaning Nakhon Phanom Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Maria Reiche Neuman Airport), and is located 12,260 miles (19,731 kilometers) away in Nazca, Ica Region, Peru.
- Because of Nakhon Phanom Airport's relatively low elevation of 587 feet, planes can take off or land at Nakhon Phanom 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.
- In addition to being known as "Nakhon Phanom Airport", another name for KOP is "ท่าอากาศยานนครพนม".
- Nakhon Phanom Airport (KOP) currently has only 1 runway.
- The closest airport to Nakhon Phanom Airport (KOP) is Savannakhet Airport (ZVK), which is located 58 miles (93 kilometers) S of KOP.

- Because of Aeroporto de Andulo's high elevation of 5,446 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ANL. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ANL a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- In addition to being known as "Aeroporto de Andulo", another name for ANL is "Aeroporto de Andulo (Andulo)".
