About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Preston Airport (PST), Guatemala, Cuba and Denver International Airport (DEN), Denver, Colorado, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,161 miles (or 3,478 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 Preston Airport and Denver International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

- The closest airport to Preston Airport (PST) is Nicaro Airport (ICR), which is located only 9 miles (14 kilometers) ESE of PST.
- The furthest airport from Preston Airport (PST) is RAAF Learmonth (LEA), which is located 11,802 miles (18,993 kilometers) away in Exmouth, Western Australia, Australia.

- The system's $186 million original construction costs grew by $1 million per day during months of modifications and repairs.
- "Mustang" has gotten mixed reviews.
- Because of Denver International Airport's high elevation of 5,431 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at DEN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make DEN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- Denver International Airport (DEN) has 6 runways.
- With the construction of DIA, Denver was determined to build an airport that could be easily expanded over the next 50 years to eliminate many of the problems that had plagued Stapleton International Airport.
