Nonstop flight route between Multan, Pakistan and Srinagar, India:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport (MUX), Multan, Pakistan and Srinagar International Airport (SXR), Srinagar, India would travel a Great Circle distance of 327 miles (or 526 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 Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport and Srinagar International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport (MUX):

• In addition to being known as "Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport", another name for MUX is "Multan Airport".
• The original upgrade plan was to build a brand new airport facility at a new location away from the original airport, however, due to the unavailability of land this proposal was dropped.
• Because of Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport's relatively low elevation of 400 feet, planes can take off or land at Muhammad Bin Qasim 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.
• During June 2010, the Prime Minister of Pakistan performed the ground-breaking of a new passenger terminal at Multan airport.
• The furthest airport from Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport (MUX) is Mataveri International Airport (IPC), which is nearly antipodal to Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport (meaning Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Mataveri International Airport), and is located 12,221 miles (19,667 kilometers) away in Easter Island, Chile.
• The closest airport to Muhammad Bin Qasim International Airport (MUX) is Dera Ghazi Khan International Airport (DEA), which is located 58 miles (94 kilometers) WSW of MUX.
