Nonstop flight route between Ta'izz, Yemen and Hobart, Tasmania, Australia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Ta'izz International Airport (TAI), Ta'izz, Yemen and Hobart International Airport (HBA), Hobart, Tasmania, Australia would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,531 miles (or 12,121 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 Ta'izz International Airport and Hobart International 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 Ta'izz International Airport and Hobart International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Because of Ta'izz International Airport's high elevation of 4,838 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at TAI. Combined with a high temperature, this could make TAI a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• The closest airport to Ta'izz International Airport (TAI) is Aden International Airport (ADE), which is located 84 miles (135 kilometers) SE of TAI.
