About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Norsup Airport (NUS), Norsup, Malakula island, Vanuatu and Ngari Gunsa Airport (NGQ), Ngari Prefecture, Tibet Autonomous Region, China would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,653 miles (or 10,707 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 Norsup Airport and Ngari Gunsa 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 Norsup Airport and Ngari Gunsa Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Norsup Airport (NUS):

  • The furthest airport from Norsup Airport (NUS) is Ouro Sogui Airport (MAX), which is nearly antipodal to Norsup Airport (meaning Norsup Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Ouro Sogui Airport), and is located 12,378 miles (19,921 kilometers) away in Matam, Senegal.
  • Because of Norsup Airport's relatively low elevation of 23 feet, planes can take off or land at Norsup 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.
  • The closest airport to Norsup Airport (NUS) is Craig Cove Airport (CCV), which is located 37 miles (60 kilometers) ESE of NUS.

Facts about Ngari Gunsa Airport (NGQ):

  • The furthest airport from Ngari Gunsa Airport (NGQ) is Mataveri International Airport (IPC), which is located 11,774 miles (18,948 kilometers) away in Easter Island, Chile.
  • Because of Ngari Gunsa Airport's high elevation of 14,022 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at NGQ. Combined with a high temperature, this could make NGQ a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • In addition to being known as "Ngari Gunsa Airport", other names for NGQ include "阿里昆莎机场ལྷ་ས་གོང་དཀར་རྫོང་" and "Ālǐ Kūnshā Jīchǎng".
