About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Miramichi Airport (YCH), Miramichi, New Brunswick, Canada and Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN), Bozeman, Montana, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,148 miles (or 3,457 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 Miramichi Airport and Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

- The runway was 5,899 ft × 159 ft but in 2012 it was extended to 10,006 ft × 150 ft and is maintained year-round.
- Because of Miramichi Airport's relatively low elevation of 110 feet, planes can take off or land at Miramichi 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 airport is the former site of CFB Chatham, a military air base, which closed in 1996, after military units were moved to other bases.
- The furthest airport from Miramichi Airport (YCH) is Albany Airport (ALH), which is located 11,586 miles (18,646 kilometers) away in Albany, Western Australia, Australia.

- Because of Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport's high elevation of 4,473 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BZN. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BZN a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
