About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Lethem Airport (LTM), Lethem, Guyana and El Loa Airport (CJC), Calama, Antofagasta Region, Chile would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,890 miles (or 3,041 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 Lethem Airport and El Loa Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Lethem Airport (LTM):
- The closest airport to Lethem Airport (LTM) is Boa Vista-Atlas Brasil Cantanhede International Airport (BVB), which is located 72 miles (116 kilometers) WSW of LTM.
- The furthest airport from Lethem Airport (LTM) is Andi Jemma Airport (MXB), which is nearly antipodal to Lethem Airport (meaning Lethem Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Andi Jemma Airport), and is located 12,380 miles (19,924 kilometers) away in Masamba, Indonesia.
- Because of Lethem Airport's relatively low elevation of 351 feet, planes can take off or land at Lethem 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.
Facts about El Loa Airport (CJC):
- The furthest airport from El Loa Airport (CJC) is Wuzhou Changzhoudao Airport (WUZ), which is nearly antipodal to El Loa Airport (meaning El Loa Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Wuzhou Changzhoudao Airport), and is located 12,369 miles (19,906 kilometers) away in Wuzhou, Guangxi, China.
- The airport served 247,821 in 2004, 273,275 in 2005, and 315,725 in 2006.
- Because of El Loa Airport's high elevation of 7,543 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at CJC. Combined with a high temperature, this could make CJC a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- El Loa Airport handled 315,725 passengers last year.
- In addition to being known as "El Loa Airport", other names for CJC include "Aeropuerto El Loa" and "El Loa Airdrome".
