Nonstop flight route between Valladolid, Spain and Edinburgh, United Kingdom:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Valladolid International Airport (VLL), Valladolid, Spain and Edinburgh Airport (EDI), Edinburgh, United Kingdom would travel a Great Circle distance of 986 miles (or 1,587 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 Valladolid International Airport and Edinburgh Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
