About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Yanbu International Airport (YNB), Yanbu (Yenbo), Al Madinah, Saudi Arabia and Sunriver Airport (SUO), Sunriver, Oregon, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,561 miles (or 12,168 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 Yanbu International Airport and Sunriver 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 Yanbu International Airport and Sunriver Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

- Because of Yanbu International Airport's relatively low elevation of 26 feet, planes can take off or land at Yanbu International 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.
- Yanbu International Airport (YNB) currently has only 1 runway.
- The furthest airport from Yanbu International Airport (YNB) is Tureira Airport (ZTA), which is nearly antipodal to Yanbu International Airport (meaning Yanbu International Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Tureira Airport), and is located 12,120 miles (19,504 kilometers) away in Tureia, Tuamotus, French Polynesia.
- Upon disembarkation, the passengers exit the plane via the air-bridge and then proceed downstairs to the baggage carousel.
