About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (STX), Christiansted, Saint Croix, United States Virgin Islands and Andahuaylas Airport (ANS), Andahuaylas, Peru would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,248 miles (or 3,617 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 Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport and Andahuaylas Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (STX):
- During World War II, the United States Army Air Forces Sixth Air Force stationed the 12th Bombardment Squadron at the airport for antisubmarine patrols flying B-18 Bolo aircraft from November 8, 1941 to November 10, 1942.
- The closest airport to Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (STX) is Christiansted Harbor Seaplane Base (SSB), which is located only 7 miles (11 kilometers) ENE of STX.
- Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (STX) currently has only 1 runway.
- Because of Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport's relatively low elevation of 74 feet, planes can take off or land at Henry E. Rohlsen International 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.
- The furthest airport from Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (STX) is Barrow Island Airport (BWB), which is nearly antipodal to Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (meaning Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Barrow Island Airport), and is located 12,218 miles (19,663 kilometers) away in Barrow Island, Western Australia, Australia.
Facts about Andahuaylas Airport (ANS):

- Because of Andahuaylas Airport's high elevation of 11,300 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ANS. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ANS a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
