About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Las Vegas Municipal Airport (LVS), Las Vegas, New Mexico, United States and Bocas del Toro "Isla Colón" International Airport (BOC), Bocas Town, Bocas del Toro, Panama would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,319 miles (or 3,733 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 Las Vegas Municipal Airport and Bocas del Toro "Isla Colón" International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
