About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Inca Manco Cápac International Airport (JUL), Juliaca, Peru and Salina Cruz Airport (SCX), Salina Cruz, Oaxaca, Mexico would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,776 miles (or 4,468 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 Inca Manco Cápac International Airport and Salina Cruz 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 Inca Manco Cápac International Airport and Salina Cruz Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Inca Manco Cápac International Airport (JUL):
- The furthest airport from Inca Manco Cápac International Airport (JUL) is Chu Lai Airport (VCL), which is nearly antipodal to Inca Manco Cápac International Airport (meaning Inca Manco Cápac International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Chu Lai Airport), and is located 12,361 miles (19,893 kilometers) away in Chu Lai, Quang Nam, Vietnam.
- Because of Inca Manco Cápac International Airport's high elevation of 12,552 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at JUL. Combined with a high temperature, this could make JUL a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- The closest airport to Inca Manco Cápac International Airport (JUL) is Rodríguez Ballón International Airport (AQP), which is located 112 miles (181 kilometers) WSW of JUL.
- Inca Manco Cápac International Airport (JUL) currently has only 1 runway.

- Because of Salina Cruz Airport's relatively low elevation of 75 feet, planes can take off or land at Salina Cruz 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.
