About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Portland International Airport (PDX), Portland, Oregon, United States and Kasompe Airport (CGJ), Chingola, Zambia would travel a Great Circle distance of 9,575 miles (or 15,410 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 Portland International Airport and Kasompe 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 Portland International Airport and Kasompe Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

  • In August 2005, the concourse connector was opened.
  • Portland International Airport handled 1,502,956 passengers last year.
  • Concourses A and B are given mostly to Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air.
  • An expanded parking garage, new control tower, and canopy over the curbside were finished in the late 1990s.
  • Because of Portland International Airport's relatively low elevation of 30 feet, planes can take off or land at Portland 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.
  • The closest airport to Portland International Airport (PDX) is Portland-Troutdale Airport (TTD), which is located only 10 miles (16 kilometers) ESE of PDX.
  • Swan Island Airport was officially named Portland Airport until the opening of the new airport.
