Nonstop flight route between Tivat, Montenegro and Provo, Utah, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Tivat Airport (TIV), Tivat, Montenegro and Provo Municipal Airport (PVU), Provo, Utah, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,942 miles (or 9,563 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 Tivat Airport and Provo Municipal 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 Tivat Airport and Provo Municipal Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• The closest airport to Tivat Airport (TIV) is Dubrovnik Airport (DBV), which is located 26 miles (41 kilometers) WNW of TIV.
• However, as passenger traffic in the mid-2010s approaches the one-million mark, and strong growth continues, the passenger terminal is a bottleneck in peak summer months.
• Tivat Airport (TIV) currently has only 1 runway.
• The furthest airport from Tivat Airport (TIV) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,666 miles (18,775 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
