Nonstop flight route between Loja, Ecuador and Everett, Washington, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Camilo Ponce Enriquez Airport (LOH), Loja, Ecuador and Paine Field (PAE), Everett, Washington, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 4,423 miles (or 7,119 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 large distance between Camilo Ponce Enriquez Airport and Paine Field, 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 Camilo Ponce Enriquez Airport and Paine Field. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• The closest airport to Camilo Ponce Enriquez Airport (LOH) is José María Velasco Ibarra Airport (MRR), which is located 47 miles (76 kilometers) SW of LOH.
• Because of Camilo Ponce Enriquez Airport's high elevation of 4,056 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at LOH. Combined with a high temperature, this could make LOH a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
