About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Cerro Largo International Airport (VCH), Vichadero, Rivera, Uruguay and Chachoan Airport (ATF), Ambato, Ecuador would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,626 miles (or 4,226 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 Cerro Largo International Airport and Chachoan 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 Cerro Largo International Airport and Chachoan Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Cerro Largo International Airport (VCH):
- The closest airport to Cerro Largo International Airport (VCH) is Comandante Gustavo Kraemer International Airport (BGX), which is located 37 miles (60 kilometers) NE of VCH.
- Because of Cerro Largo International Airport's relatively low elevation of 488 feet, planes can take off or land at Cerro Largo International 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 furthest airport from Cerro Largo International Airport (VCH) is Jeongseok / Jungseok Airport (JDG), which is nearly antipodal to Cerro Largo International Airport (meaning Cerro Largo International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Jeongseok / Jungseok Airport), and is located 12,299 miles (19,794 kilometers) away in Jeju province, South Korea.
- In addition to being known as "Cerro Largo International Airport", another name for VCH is "Aeropuerto Internacional de Cerro Largo".
Facts about Chachoan Airport (ATF):
- The furthest airport from Chachoan Airport (ATF) is Pinang Kampai Airport (DUM), which is nearly antipodal to Chachoan Airport (meaning Chachoan Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Pinang Kampai Airport), and is located 12,409 miles (19,971 kilometers) away in Dumai, Sumatra, Indonesia.
- The closest airport to Chachoan Airport (ATF) is Cotopaxi International Airport (LTX), which is located 21 miles (34 kilometers) N of ATF.
- In addition to being known as "Chachoan Airport", another name for ATF is "Aeropuerto Chachoan".
- Because of Chachoan Airport's high elevation of 8,502 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ATF. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ATF a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
