How Far?

Did you know that it takes a jet approximately 3.5 hours to travel between Guyana (in the south) and the Bahamas (in the north) a distance of approximately 2,887 km? The same journey would take 6 hours in a turbo-pro plane (like LIAT); 10 hours in a crop duster; and only 1.5 hours by the Concorde (if it flew that route).

Follow this link to find the distance between any two airport. You can type in two airport codes and get the distance (miles, km, nm), flight time and wind adjusted distance.
