About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport (LAI), Lannion, France and Jumla Airport (JUM), Jumla, Nepal would travel a Great Circle distance of 4,541 miles (or 7,308 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 Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport and Jumla 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 Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport and Jumla Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport (LAI):
- In addition to being known as "Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport", another name for LAI is "Aéroport de Lannion - Côte de Granit".
- Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport (LAI) currently has only 1 runway.
- Because of Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport's relatively low elevation of 290 feet, planes can take off or land at Lannion - Côte de Granit 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 Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport (LAI) is Dunedin International Airport (DUD), which is nearly antipodal to Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport (meaning Lannion - Côte de Granit Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Dunedin International Airport), and is located 12,082 miles (19,444 kilometers) away in Dunedin, Otago, New Zealand.
