Nonstop flight route between Lublin, Poland and Ghinnir, Ethiopia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Lublin Airport (LUZ), Lublin, Poland and Ghinnir Airport (GNN), Ghinnir, Ethiopia would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,216 miles (or 5,175 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 Lublin Airport and Ghinnir 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 Lublin Airport and Ghinnir Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Lublin Airport (LUZ):

• In addition to being known as "Lublin Airport", another name for LUZ is "Port Lotniczy Lublin".
• There is a dedicated bus service to the airport, with a flexible schedule, which starts its run to the airport 2 hours before each flight departure, and leaves the airport 25 minutes after flight arrival.
• Because of Lublin Airport's relatively low elevation of 666 feet, planes can take off or land at Lublin 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 furthest airport from Lublin Airport (LUZ) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,410 miles (18,363 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
• Lublin Airport (LUZ) has 2 runways.
• The factory employed some staff from the prewar Lubelska Wytwórnia Samolotów, an airplane manufacturer in Lublin that functioned from 1936 to 1939, being itself the successor of Plage i Laśkiewicz factory which functioned between 1920 and 1935.

Facts about Ghinnir Airport (GNN):

• The furthest airport from Ghinnir Airport (GNN) is Atuona Airport (AUQ), which is nearly antipodal to Ghinnir Airport (meaning Ghinnir Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Atuona Airport), and is located 12,255 miles (19,722 kilometers) away in Atuona, Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia.
• The closest airport to Ghinnir Airport (GNN) is Robe Airport (GOB), which is located 46 miles (74 kilometers) W of GNN.
• Because of Ghinnir Airport's high elevation of 6,499 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at GNN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make GNN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
