About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE), Venice, Italy and Mbala Airport (MMQ), Mbala, Northern Province, Zambia would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,937 miles (or 6,335 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 Venice Marco Polo Airport and Mbala 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 Venice Marco Polo Airport and Mbala Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

  • Venice Marco Polo Airport handled 8,403,790 passengers last year.
  • The airport is connected to the nearby railway station of Venice Mestre and to the bus terminal of Piazzale Roma in Venice by scheduled bus services.
  • Because of Venice Marco Polo Airport's relatively low elevation of 7 feet, planes can take off or land at Venice Marco Polo 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.
  • Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE) has 2 runways.
  • In addition to being known as "Venice Marco Polo Airport", other names for VCE include "Aeroporto di Venezia Marco Polo" and "Aeroporto di Venezia-Tessera".
