Nonstop flight route between Marakei, Kiribati and Mokuleia, Hawaii, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Marakei Airport (MZK), Marakei, Kiribati and Dillingham Airfield (HDH), Mokuleia, Hawaii, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,345 miles (or 3,774 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 Marakei Airport and Dillingham Airfield, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
