Nonstop flight route between Otopeni (near Bucharest), Romania and Niš, Serbia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Bucharest Henri Coandǎ International Airport (OTP), Otopeni (near Bucharest), Romania and Niš Constantine the Great International Airport (INI), Niš, Serbia would travel a Great Circle distance of 227 miles (or 365 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 Bucharest Henri Coandǎ International Airport and Niš Constantine the Great International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
