Nonstop flight route between Almeirim, Pará, Brazil and Arequipa, Peru:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Serra do Areão Airport (MEU), Almeirim, Pará, Brazil and Rodríguez Ballón International Airport (AQP), Arequipa, Peru would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,676 miles (or 2,698 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 Serra do Areão Airport and Rodríguez Ballón International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

• Because of Serra do Areão Airport's relatively low elevation of 677 feet, planes can take off or land at Serra do Areão 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.
• In addition to being known as "Serra do Areão Airport", another name for MEU is "Aeroporto da Serra do Areão".
• The closest airport to Serra do Areão Airport (MEU) is Macapá-Alberto Alcolumbre International Airport (MCP), which is located 124 miles (200 kilometers) ENE of MEU.
• The furthest airport from Serra do Areão Airport (MEU) is Sam Ratulangi International Airport (SRA) (MDC), which is nearly antipodal to Serra do Areão Airport (meaning Serra do Areão Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Sam Ratulangi International Airport (SRA)), and is located 12,260 miles (19,731 kilometers) away in Manado, Indonesia.
