Nonstop flight route between St. Johns, Arizona, United States and Agatti Island, India:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between St. Johns Industrial Air Park (SJN), St. Johns, Arizona, United States and Agatti Aerodrome (AGX), Agatti Island, India would travel a Great Circle distance of 9,302 miles (or 14,970 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 St. Johns Industrial Air Park and Agatti Aerodrome, 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 St. Johns Industrial Air Park and Agatti Aerodrome. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Because of St. Johns Industrial Air Park's high elevation of 5,737 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at SJN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make SJN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
