About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Crater Lake- Klamath Regional Airport (LMT), Klamath Falls, Oregon, United States and Oakland County International Airport (PTK), Waterford, Michigan, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,938 miles (or 3,119 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 Crater Lake- Klamath Regional Airport and Oakland County International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

- Because of Crater Lake- Klamath Regional Airport's high elevation of 4,095 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at LMT. Combined with a high temperature, this could make LMT a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- In 1954 the airport was selected as a site for U.S.
- Until 1959 United Airlines served Klamath Falls with Douglas DC-3s and Convair 340s.
