About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Upolu Airport (UPP), Hawi, Hawaii, United States and Minden-Tahoe Airport (MEV), Minden, Nevada, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,501 miles (or 4,025 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 Upolu Airport and Minden-Tahoe 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 Upolu Airport and Minden-Tahoe Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Upolu Airport (UPP):

  • The closest airport to Upolu Airport (UPP) is Waimea-Kohala Airport (MUE), which is located 22 miles (36 kilometers) SE of UPP.

  • Upolu Airport covers an area of 82 acres at an elevation of 96 feet above mean sea level.

Facts about Minden-Tahoe Airport (MEV):

  • The airport is currently undergoing an expansion plan where glider operations will be moved to the East Side of the airport.
  • Because of Minden-Tahoe Airport's high elevation of 4,722 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at MEV.
