About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Manuel Crescencio Rejón International Airport (MID), Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico and Mariscal Lamar International Airport (CUE), Cuenca, Ecuador would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,798 miles (or 2,893 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 Manuel Crescencio Rejón International Airport and Mariscal Lamar International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

- Because of Manuel Crescencio Rejón International Airport's relatively low elevation of 39 feet, planes can take off or land at Manuel Crescencio Rejón International 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 airport was completely remodeled between 1999 and 2001.
