About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Mokpo Airport (MPK), Mokpo, South Korea and Gilgit Airport (GIL), Gilgit, Pakistan would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,899 miles (or 4,665 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 Mokpo Airport and Gilgit 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 Mokpo Airport and Gilgit Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Mokpo Airport (MPK):

  • In addition to being known as "Mokpo Airport", another name for MPK is "목포공항".
  • Because of Mokpo Airport's relatively low elevation of 23 feet, planes can take off or land at Mokpo 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 Mokpo Airport (MPK) is Capitán de Corbeta Carlos A. Curbelo International Airport (PDP), which is nearly antipodal to Mokpo Airport (meaning Mokpo Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Capitán de Corbeta Carlos A. Curbelo International Airport), and is located 12,353 miles (19,880 kilometers) away in Maldonado/Punta del Este, Maldonado, Uruguay.
  • Mokpo Airport (MPK) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The closest airport to Mokpo Airport (MPK) is Gwangju Airport (KWJ), which is located 35 miles (57 kilometers) NE of MPK.

Facts about Gilgit Airport (GIL):

  • The furthest airport from Gilgit Airport (GIL) is Mataveri International Airport (IPC), which is located 11,793 miles (18,979 kilometers) away in Easter Island, Chile.
  • Gilgit Airport (GIL) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The closest airport to Gilgit Airport (GIL) is Chilas Airport (CHB), which is located 37 miles (59 kilometers) SSW of GIL.
  • Because of Gilgit Airport's high elevation of 4,796 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at GIL. Combined with a high temperature, this could make GIL a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
