About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Malekoula Airport (LPM), Lamap, Malampa, Vanuatu and Capitán Oriel Lea Plaza International Airport (TJA), Tarija, Bolivia would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,016 miles (or 12,901 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 Malekoula Airport and Capitán Oriel Lea Plaza International 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 Malekoula Airport and Capitán Oriel Lea Plaza International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Malekoula Airport (LPM):

  • In addition to being known as "Malekoula Airport", another name for LPM is "Lamap Airport".
  • The furthest airport from Malekoula Airport (LPM) is Kiffa Airport (KFA), which is nearly antipodal to Malekoula Airport (meaning Malekoula Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Kiffa Airport), and is located 12,384 miles (19,931 kilometers) away in Kiffa, Mauritania.
  • Because of Malekoula Airport's relatively low elevation of 7 feet, planes can take off or land at Malekoula 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 closest airport to Malekoula Airport (LPM) is Craig Cove Airport (CCV), which is located only 15 miles (24 kilometers) NNE of LPM.

  • Because of Capitán Oriel Lea Plaza International Airport's high elevation of 6,084 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at TJA. Combined with a high temperature, this could make TJA a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
