About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Harare International Airport (HRE), Harare, Zimbabwe and Lüderitz Airport (LUD), Luderitz, Namibia would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,178 miles (or 1,896 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 Harare International Airport and Lüderitz Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Harare International Airport (HRE):

  • The furthest airport from Harare International Airport (HRE) is Hilo International Airport (ITO), which is nearly antipodal to Harare International Airport (meaning Harare International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Hilo International Airport), and is located 12,017 miles (19,339 kilometers) away in Hilo, Hawaii, United States.
  • Originally, it was anticipated that the airport would be completed by 1954.
  • A site therefore had to be found for the construction of an airport that would be safer and more suitable for commercial activities.
  • Harare International Airport handled 612,208 passengers last year.
  • Harare International Airport (HRE) currently has only 1 runway.
  • The closest airport to Harare International Airport (HRE) is Mutare Airport (UTA), which is located 125 miles (201 kilometers) SE of HRE.
  • In 1949 the government purchased Kentucky and Adair farms east of Salisbury for the construction of the new airport.
  • Civil aviation regulatory authority, the Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe has its head office on level 3 of the new International Terminal.
  • Because of Harare International Airport's high elevation of 4,887 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at HRE. Combined with a high temperature, this could make HRE a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.

Facts about Lüderitz Airport (LUD):

  • The furthest airport from Lüderitz Airport (LUD) is PMRF Barking Sands (BKH), which is located 11,988 miles (19,292 kilometers) away in Kekaha, Hawaii, United States.
  • Because of Lüderitz Airport's relatively low elevation of 457 feet, planes can take off or land at Lüderitz 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.
  • Lüderitz Airport (LUD) has 2 runways.
