## What the aircraft actually flies over

From Doha the path crosses Saudi Arabia, then Oman, then 2,383 km of open water.

The furthest the great circle gets from the equator is 25.3°N, 0% of the way along.

Holding a single compass bearing the whole way would cover almost exactly the same ground, so on this route the flat map and the globe agree.

The heading barely moves: south out of Doha, south into Seychelles. Over this distance the curve has too little room to bend the compass.

One economy seat on it is about 498 kg of CO₂e each way, counting non-CO₂ warming.
