Can you go to that flight?

Tell me where it goes

Halifax is not Toronto is it. They are a thousand miles apart or so.

Halifax is east of America.

But where does the plane go?

Where is the stopover?

This was the first flight I looked at btw

You can go from Halifax to Paris. What is the point.

I lived in Halifax for several months.

@Steve Angell where does the plane stop before going to Paris?

It says right there on the website

When I flew from Boston it got nowhere near Europe.

The link did not work.

Will you answer or should I tell you

You have to delete the two spaces after https:

Look if I book passage in America it is not uncommon to have to go to a major airport from a smaller city. Then go to where I want to go.

The point was the flat earth map makes perfect sense. The globe not a lick of sense. You deflect by saying but what if it is a small airport and they think it makes sense to go thousands of miles out of the way. Well that does not make a lick of sense on the Globe earth.

Halifax is a small city. So of course you have to go to a major airport to go to Eurpoe. South Africa has major cities.

So you’re saying a plane doesn’t always go the shortest route?

Yet when you fly there you go thousands of miles out of the way on the globe earth.

It is a direct flight on the flat earth. The shortest distance only makes sense on the flat earth.

Major airports take the shortest route possible. Minor ones have to get you to a major airport and then it takes the shortest distance possible.

Instead of going east they go NNE. Instead of going south they go NNE.

South then North should be the shortest route.

Were we on a ball.

remember that you're flying through air and have to account for the direction of favorable winds

@Steve Angell Angell? You know what you said about small airports having to go to larger airports first?

The wind goes east from South Africa so again it does not work.

Regardless I fly against the wind in America when I fly west. With it on the way back.

Steve what you said about size?

Nothing small about that Airport in South Africa.

Well you’ll find it interesting that the largest airport in South Africa handles only 20 million people yearly, while the airport in Dubai handles 88 million people, making it the largest airport in the world by traffic volume

You are deflecting. You said the flights make sense on the Globe. Now you are trying to figure out some way to justify the insanity of the flight paths.

Only 20 million. That is not small.

So perhaps you were right that planes travel from small airports to larger airports to be practical

Dallas has a lot of short flights.

Perhaps you just explained why a plane would fly from South Africa to Dubai

Dallas is a Hub in the center of a good portion of America.

Nothing small about 20 million.

Because it makes perfect sense on the flat earth we live on.

That is the shortest distance possible. Not on the Globe.
