About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Quetzalcóatl International Airport (NLD), Nuevo Laredo, Mexico and Bayankhongor Airport (BYN), Bayankhongor, Mongolia would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,194 miles (or 11,578 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 Quetzalcóatl International Airport and Bayankhongor 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 Quetzalcóatl International Airport and Bayankhongor Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Quetzalcóatl International Airport (NLD):

  • In addition to being known as "Quetzalcóatl International Airport", another name for NLD is "Aeropuerto Internacional Quetzalcóatl".
  • Because of Quetzalcóatl International Airport's relatively low elevation of 484 feet, planes can take off or land at Quetzalcóatl 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.
  • Quetzalcóatl International Airport (NLD) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The furthest airport from Quetzalcóatl International Airport (NLD) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,234 miles (18,080 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
  • Quetzalcóatl International Airport handled 84,443 passengers last year.
  • The closest airport to Quetzalcóatl International Airport (NLD) is Laredo International Airport (LRD), which is located only 10 miles (15 kilometers) NE of NLD.

  • Bayankhongor Airport handled 2,192 passengers last year.
  • Because of Bayankhongor Airport's high elevation of 6,085 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BYN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BYN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
