Nonstop flight route between Greenville, Liberia and St. Moritz / Samedan, Switzerland:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Greenville/Sinoe Airport (SNI), Greenville, Liberia and Samedan Airport (SMV), St. Moritz / Samedan, Switzerland would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,083 miles (or 4,961 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 Greenville/Sinoe Airport and Samedan 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 Greenville/Sinoe Airport and Samedan Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Because of Greenville/Sinoe Airport's relatively low elevation of 10 feet, planes can take off or land at Greenville/Sinoe 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.
