About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Khuzdar Airport (KDD), Khuzdar, Pakistan and Lelystad Airport (LEY), Lelystad, Netherlands would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,520 miles (or 5,664 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 Khuzdar Airport and Lelystad 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 Khuzdar Airport and Lelystad Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Khuzdar Airport (KDD):
- The furthest airport from Khuzdar Airport (KDD) is Mataveri International Airport (IPC), which is nearly antipodal to Khuzdar Airport (meaning Khuzdar Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Mataveri International Airport), and is located 12,192 miles (19,620 kilometers) away in Easter Island, Chile.
- The closest airport to Khuzdar Airport (KDD) is Moenjodaro Airport (MJD), which is located 97 miles (157 kilometers) ESE of KDD.
- Khuzdar Airport (KDD) currently has only 1 runway.
- Because of Khuzdar Airport's high elevation of 4,012 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at KDD. Combined with a high temperature, this could make KDD a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
Facts about Lelystad Airport (LEY):
- On 13 June 2014, the draft decision "airport expansion Lelystad Airport" has become public and has been submitted to the Council of State for consultation.

- In 1966 it was decided that the newly created Flevopolder required one central airport.
- Lelystad Airport (LEY) has 2 runways.
- Because of Lelystad Airport's relatively low elevation of -12 feet, planes can take off or land at Lelystad 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.
