Nonstop flight route between Samos Island, Greece and Chester, England, United Kingdom:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Samos International Airport "Aristarchos of Samos" (SMI), Samos Island, Greece and Chester Hawarden Airport Hawarden Airport (CEG), Chester, England, United Kingdom would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,780 miles (or 2,865 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 Samos International Airport "Aristarchos of Samos" and Chester Hawarden Airport Hawarden Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
