Nonstop flight route between Pinellas County, Florida (near St. Petersburg and Clearwater), United States and Chiclayo, Peru:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between St. Pete–Clearwater International Airport (PIE), Pinellas County, Florida (near St. Petersburg and Clearwater), United States and Cap. FAP José A. Quiñones González International Airport (CIX), Chiclayo, Peru would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,405 miles (or 3,870 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 St. Pete–Clearwater International Airport and Cap. FAP José A. Quiñones González International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
