About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (REP), Siem Reap, Cambodia and Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International Airport (BUQ), Bulawayo, Zimbabwe would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,606 miles (or 9,021 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 Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport and Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International 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 Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport and Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (REP):
- Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (REP) currently has only 1 runway.
- Because of Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport's relatively low elevation of 60 feet, planes can take off or land at Siem Reap-Angkor 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 Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (REP) is Battambang Airport (BBM), which is located 45 miles (73 kilometers) WSW of REP.
- The Cambodian government has plans to replace the airport with a new one, 60 km from Siem Reap.
- The furthest airport from Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (REP) is Capitán FAP Renán Elías Olivera International Airport (PIO), which is nearly antipodal to Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (meaning Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Capitán FAP Renán Elías Olivera International Airport), and is located 12,414 miles (19,978 kilometers) away in Pisco, Peru.
