About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Hannover Airport (HAJ), Hanover, Lower Saxony, Germany and Bulgan Airport (UGA), Bulgan, Mongolia would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,815 miles (or 6,139 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 Hannover Airport and Bulgan 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 Hannover Airport and Bulgan Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Hannover Airport (HAJ):
- Hannover Airport has its own exit on motorway A352, which is a shortcut between the major motorways A2 and A7, relieving the often congested interchange Kreuz Hannover Ost.
- The furthest airport from Hannover Airport (HAJ) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,776 miles (18,952 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
- Because of Hannover Airport's relatively low elevation of 183 feet, planes can take off or land at Hannover 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.
- TUIfly, which maintains a base at Hannover Airport, has dramatically reduced services in 2008 and 2009, and passed all its non-traditional holiday routes to Air Berlin late in 2009.
- Hannover Airport (HAJ) has 3 runways.
- The closest airport to Hannover Airport (HAJ) is Celle Air Base (ZCN), which is located only 17 miles (27 kilometers) ENE of HAJ.
- In addition to being known as "Hannover Airport", another name for HAJ is "Flughafen Hannover-Langenhagen".
- Hannover Airport is one of very few German airports which are open 24 hours a day, but in practice there are very few flights between 11pm and 4am.
Facts about Bulgan Airport (UGA):
- The furthest airport from Bulgan Airport (UGA) is Cochrane Airfield (LGR), which is nearly antipodal to Bulgan Airport (meaning Bulgan Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Cochrane Airfield), and is located 12,224 miles (19,673 kilometers) away in Cochrane, Chile.
- Bulgan Airport (UGA) currently has only 1 runway.
- Because of Bulgan Airport's high elevation of 4,236 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at UGA. Combined with a high temperature, this could make UGA a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- The closest airport to Bulgan Airport (UGA) is Kharkhorin Airport (KHR), which is located 115 miles (185 kilometers) SSW of UGA.
