Nonstop flight route between Tegel / Berlin, Germany and Cochabamba, Bolivia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL), Tegel / Berlin, Germany and Jorge Wilstermann International Airport (CBB), Cochabamba, Bolivia would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,741 miles (or 10,849 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 Berlin Tegel Airport and Jorge Wilstermann 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 Berlin Tegel Airport and Jorge Wilstermann International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Following the move to Tegel, Air France initially used Lockheed Super Constellation piston equipment on all Berlin flights.
• The arrival at Berlin Tegel of an Air France Aérospatiale-BAC Concorde on 17 January 1976 marked the Berlin debut of the Anglo-French supersonic airliner.
• Berlin Tegel Airport handled 19,591,849 passengers last year.
• Berlin Tegel Airport is the main international airport of Berlin, the federal capital of Germany, ahead of Berlin Schönefeld Airport.
• In addition to being known as "Berlin Tegel Airport", another name for TXL is "Flughafen Berlin-Tegel".
• The furthest airport from Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,685 miles (18,805 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
• Because of Berlin Tegel Airport's relatively low elevation of 122 feet, planes can take off or land at Berlin Tegel 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.
• In the interim, a number of Boeing 737-200/200 Adv were leased from 1982.
• On that day, Air France, which had served Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Munich, Nuremberg and its main base at Paris Le Bourget/Orly during the previous decade from Tempelhof with Douglas DC-4, Sud-Est Languedoc and Lockheed Constellation/Super Constellation piston equipment, shifted its entire Berlin operation to Tegel because Tempelhof's runways were too short to permit the introduction of the Sud-Aviation Caravelle, the French flag carrier's new short-haul jet, with a viable payload.
• Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL) has 2 runways.
• In the late 1950s, the runways at West Berlin's city centre Tempelhof Airport had become too short to accommodate the new-generation jet aircraft such as the Aérospatiale Caravelle, Boeing 707, de Havilland Comet and Douglas DC-8, without imposing payload or range restrictions.

• In addition to being known as "Jorge Wilstermann International Airport", another name for CBB is "Aeropuerto Internacional Jorge Wilstermann".
• Because of Jorge Wilstermann International Airport's high elevation of 8,360 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at CBB. Combined with a high temperature, this could make CBB a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
