About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Negril Aerodrome (NEG), Negril, Jamaica and Shennongjia Hongping Airport (HPG), Shennongjia, Hubei, China would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,936 miles (or 14,382 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 Negril Aerodrome and Shennongjia Hongping 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 Negril Aerodrome and Shennongjia Hongping Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

- In addition to being known as "Shennongjia Hongping Airport", other names for HPG include "神农架红坪机场" and "Shénnóngjià Hóngpíng Jīchǎng".
- Because of Shennongjia Hongping Airport's high elevation of 8,465 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at HPG. Combined with a high temperature, this could make HPG a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
