About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Tambao Airport (TMQ), Tambao, Burkina Faso and Lake Manyara Airport (LKY), Lake Manyara, Tanzania would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,752 miles (or 4,428 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 Tambao Airport and Lake Manyara 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 Tambao Airport and Lake Manyara Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Tambao Airport (TMQ):

  • Because of Tambao Airport's relatively low elevation of 820 feet, planes can take off or land at Tambao 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 closest airport to Tambao Airport (TMQ) is Gorom Gorom Airport (XGG), which is located 29 miles (47 kilometers) SW of TMQ.
  • The furthest airport from Tambao Airport (TMQ) is Labasa Airport (LBS), which is nearly antipodal to Tambao Airport (meaning Tambao Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Labasa Airport), and is located 12,312 miles (19,814 kilometers) away in Labasa, Fiji.

Facts about Lake Manyara Airport (LKY):

  • In addition to being known as "Lake Manyara Airport", another name for LKY is "Uwanja wa Ndege wa Ziwa Manyara  (Swahili)".
  • Lake Manyara Airport (LKY) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The furthest airport from Lake Manyara Airport (LKY) is Cassidy International Airport (CXI), which is located 11,523 miles (18,544 kilometers) away in Christmas Island, Kiribati.
  • Because of Lake Manyara Airport's high elevation of 4,150 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at LKY. Combined with a high temperature, this could make LKY a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • The closest airport to Lake Manyara Airport (LKY) is Arusha Airport (ARK), which is located 55 miles (89 kilometers) E of LKY.
