Nonstop flight route between Mehamn, Norway and Meribel, France:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Mehamn Airport (MEH), Mehamn, Norway and Méribel Airport (MFX), Meribel, France would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,907 miles (or 3,070 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 Mehamn Airport and Méribel Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

• Mehamn Airport (MEH) currently has only 1 runway.
• The furthest airport from Mehamn Airport (MEH) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 10,384 miles (16,711 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
• Because of Mehamn Airport's relatively low elevation of 39 feet, planes can take off or land at Mehamn 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.
• Simultaneously as Mehamn was awarded an airport, Parliament voted to build a new road which would better winter transport between the villages of Kjøllefjord, Mehamn and Gamvik, allow Mehamn Airport to efficiently serve the entire peninsula.
• In addition to being known as "Mehamn Airport", another name for MEH is "Mehamn lufthavn".
• The closest airport to Mehamn Airport (MEH) is Berlevåg Airport (BVG), which is located 29 miles (47 kilometers) ESE of MEH.
