Nonstop flight route between Mary, Turkmenistan and Wellington, New Zealand:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Mary International Airport (MYP), Mary, Turkmenistan and Wellington International Airport (WLG), Wellington, New Zealand would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,940 miles (or 14,387 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 Mary International Airport and Wellington 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 Mary International Airport and Wellington International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Wellington has a reputation for sometimes rough and turbulent landings, even in larger aircraft, due to the channelling effect of Cook Strait creating strong and gusty winds, especially in pre frontal north westerly conditions.
