Flying non-stop from Lethbridge to Greybull (Wyoming)
Now let's assume you have a private jet and you can fly in thefastest possible straight line between Lethbridge, Alberta andGreybull, Wyoming. Because of the curvature of the Earth, theshortest distance is actually the "great circle" distance, or"as the crow flies" which is calculated using an iterativeVincenty formula.
Flight distance: 425 miles or 683 km
Flight time: 1 hour, 21 minutes
The straight line flight distance is 104 miles less than driving on roads, which means the driving distance is roughly 1.2x of the flight distance.
Your plane flies much faster than a car, so the flight time is about 1/6th of the time it would take to drive.
This is a relatively short flight in a private plane, but you might be planning to book a commercial flight. In that case, your travel time would really need toinclude how many minutes to get to your local airport, waitfor security, board and taxi on the runway, land at the otherairport, and get to your destination. Scroll down to see a more realistic calculation that takesinto account all these factors to get a more accurate estimateof your actual flight time.
