The distance between Seattle and Chicago is – according to this – www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=sea-... 2769 km. At 200 km/h that's a little under 14 hours. Certainly not a day trip. But not too crazy with a proper sleeper train.

Stunned that there are scheduled flights between Kinshasa and Brazzaville, which are merely 16 mi apart from each other. It's apparently a short boat trip. www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=FIH-...

Also: the "as the crow flies" line from Oslo to Trondheim (busiest PAX air route in Norway 2022) does not cross a fjord www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=osl-... (it does cross two lakes tho)

Well....AMS-DXB-AKL is 12,039 miles and AMS-LAX-AKL is 12,082 so technically shorter....but really 50/50. Great circle distance is 11,269 miles. www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=ams-...

YHZ-AMS is only 2600 nautical miles. The MAX 8 has a published range of 3500nm. ETOPS/EDTO likely eats into that a bit, as does the jetstream. But I'd bet a couple other destinations like CDG/MAD could work. Those are actually shorter than AMS.

If TWA were to skip anything I think it would be to overfly the Azores to mainland Europe (or Ireland), not skipping Gander to get to PDL.

YQX isn't too far out of the way for BOS-PDL. But PDL is WAY out of the way for YQX-SNN.

Sure. JFK-IST-CDG is 75% longer than the nonstop. www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=jfk-...

Once I flew EWR-SEA via HNL-IAH-MCO-CLE-ORD. On the way back I went SFO-LAX-IAD-GRU-ORD-EWR.

But I paid for my tix. 🙈

JAL has applied to place the Alaska Airlines AS code on flights to several "beyond Japan" markets:

Service to start 29 OCT, pending approval.

Hi, I'm a nerd and one of my friends showed me your post. Even from the East Coast they would've gone pretty far north, and may have wound up over the pole if the winds were favorable. Parker Posey may be doped out in the show, but she got this one right lol www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=CLT-...

That’s taking the long way around, and it’s against the winds. Obviously they’re not going to fly over Russian airspace, but even rerouting over Cairo is significantly shorter. www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=SZL-...

You can doubt, but the great circle distance is 880km, see www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=Par-... , so I reckon the train travels at least that distance. ;)

Unless there are some long tunnels on the route cutting a chord through the earth, which would be cool! :)

my favourite (and very Canadian) slant on this: St John's, NL is closer to Ireland than it is to Winnipeg 😅

In this case, the path that accounts for the Earth's curvature is indeed relatively straight on a projected map (in actually bends a little towards the north, not the south).
However, there are other reasons not to take a direct path.

Thank you for writing your waypoints like that. I can just plop it into www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=KTUS... for a little map

My brother tried to share a couple flight paths with me from Great Circle Mapper over WhatsApp and every time I clicked the links they appeared broken.

I took a second to think and realized that because GCM is so old it's cute, they use regular HTTP and that is blocked automagically.

105 hours on the year and ten new airports.

It would have been more but my plane decided to break twice (bad alternator and then a flat tire, both on the first flight of the day to fly Young Eagles).

91 hours for the year, 40 hours less than 2022 thanks to all the rain and some airline travel.

Only 5 new airports, but I did successfully land below sea level.
