Nonstop flight route between Visby, Sweden and Trondheim, Sør-Trøndelag, Norway:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Visby Airport (VBY), Visby, Sweden and Trondheim Airport, Værnes (TRD), Trondheim, Sør-Trøndelag, Norway would travel a Great Circle distance of 472 miles (or 760 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 relatively short distance between Visby Airport and Trondheim Airport, Værnes, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
