About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Kuujjuarapik Airport (YGW), Kuujjuarapik, Quebec, Canada and Asosa Airport (ASO), Asosa, Ethiopia would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,497 miles (or 10,456 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 Kuujjuarapik Airport and Asosa 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 Kuujjuarapik Airport and Asosa Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

  • The furthest airport from Kuujjuarapik Airport (YGW) is Albany Airport (ALH), which is located 10,848 miles (17,458 kilometers) away in Albany, Western Australia, Australia.
  • Because of Kuujjuarapik Airport's relatively low elevation of 40 feet, planes can take off or land at Kuujjuarapik 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.
  • Kuujjuarapik Airport (YGW) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The closest airport to Kuujjuarapik Airport (YGW) is Umiujaq Airport (YUD), which is located 99 miles (160 kilometers) NNE of YGW.
