About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Cyril E. King Airport (STT), Charlotte Amalie, Saint Thomas, United States Virgin Islands and Enarotali Airport (EWI), Enarotali, Indonesia would travel a Great Circle distance of 10,684 miles (or 17,194 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 Cyril E. King Airport and Enarotali 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 Cyril E. King Airport and Enarotali Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

King Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Barrow Island Airport), and is located 12,260 miles (19,731 kilometers) away in Barrow Island, Western Australia, Australia.
- Because of Cyril E. King Airport's relatively low elevation of 23 feet, planes can take off or land at Cyril E. King 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.
