About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Santander Airport (SDR), Santander, Cantabria, Spain and Chilas Airport (CHB), Chilas, Pakistan would travel a Great Circle distance of 4,042 miles (or 6,505 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 Santander Airport and Chilas 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 Santander Airport and Chilas Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Santander Airport (SDR):

  • Because of Santander Airport's relatively low elevation of 16 feet, planes can take off or land at Santander 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.
  • Santander Airport (SDR) currently has only 1 runway.
  • In addition to being known as "Santander Airport", other names for SDR include "Aeropuerto de Santander" and "Aeropuerto de Parayas".
  • The furthest airport from Santander Airport (SDR) is Kaikoura Aerodrome (KBZ), which is nearly antipodal to Santander Airport (meaning Santander Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Kaikoura Aerodrome), and is located 12,289 miles (19,777 kilometers) away in Kaikoura, New Zealand.
  • The closest airport to Santander Airport (SDR) is Bilbao Airport (BIO), which is located 47 miles (75 kilometers) E of SDR.

  • The closest airport to Chilas Airport (CHB) is Gilgit Airport (GIL), which is located 37 miles (59 kilometers) NNE of CHB.
  • Because of Chilas Airport's high elevation of 4,150 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at CHB. Combined with a high temperature, this could make CHB a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • Chilas Airport (CHB) currently has only 1 runway.
