Nonstop flight route between New Orleans, Louisiana, United States and Hollywood, Florida, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans (NBG), New Orleans, Louisiana, United States and North Perry Airport (HWO), Hollywood, Florida, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 653 miles (or 1,052 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 Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans and North Perry Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
