Nonstop flight route between Montes Claros, Minas Gerais, Brazil and Bogotá, Colombia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Montes Claros/Mário Ribeiro Airport (MOC), Montes Claros, Minas Gerais, Brazil and El Dorado International Airport (BOG), Bogotá, Colombia would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,545 miles (or 4,095 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 Montes Claros/Mário Ribeiro Airport and El Dorado International 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 Montes Claros/Mário Ribeiro Airport and El Dorado International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!
