Nonstop flight route between Puerto Limón, Costa Rica and Catarman, Northern Samar, Philippines:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Limón International Airport (LIO), Puerto Limón, Costa Rica and Catarman National Airport (CRM), Catarman, Northern Samar, Philippines would travel a Great Circle distance of 9,985 miles (or 16,069 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 Limón International Airport and Catarman National 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 Limón International Airport and Catarman National Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!
