About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Tidjikja Airport (TIY), Tidjikja, Mauritania and Harare International Airport (HRE), Harare, Zimbabwe would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,833 miles (or 6,169 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 Tidjikja Airport and Harare 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 Tidjikja Airport and Harare International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Tidjikja Airport (TIY):

  • The furthest airport from Tidjikja Airport (TIY) is Dillon's Bay Airport (DLY), which is nearly antipodal to Tidjikja Airport (meaning Tidjikja Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Dillon's Bay Airport), and is located 12,406 miles (19,965 kilometers) away in Dillon's Bay, Erromango, Taféa, Vanuatu.
  • Tidjikja Airport (TIY) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The closest airport to Tidjikja Airport (TIY) is Letfotar Airport (MOM), which is located 91 miles (146 kilometers) SW of TIY.

Facts about Harare International Airport (HRE):

  • Harare International Airport (HRE) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The furthest airport from Harare International Airport (HRE) is Hilo International Airport (ITO), which is nearly antipodal to Harare International Airport (meaning Harare International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Hilo International Airport), and is located 12,017 miles (19,339 kilometers) away in Hilo, Hawaii, United States.
  • A site therefore had to be found for the construction of an airport that would be safer and more suitable for commercial activities.
  • Originally, it was anticipated that the airport would be completed by 1954.
  • The closest airport to Harare International Airport (HRE) is Mutare Airport (UTA), which is located 125 miles (201 kilometers) SE of HRE.
  • Because of Harare International Airport's high elevation of 4,887 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at HRE. Combined with a high temperature, this could make HRE a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • In 1951 the government announced that the airport would be developed as a joint user aerodrome for both civil aviation and the Southern Rhodesian Air Force.
  • Air Rhodesia established its headquarters at the airport in 1967, and since Independence in 1980, Air Rhodesia's successor, Air Zimbabwe, has maintained the status-quo with its head office, too, located at the airport.
  • Also in 1949 the Minister of Mines and Transport set up an Airport Panel to co-ordinate the construction of the airport.
  • Harare International Airport handled 612,208 passengers last year.
