Both ends are in North America. **Great circle** 507 km 315 mi **Estimated in the air** 1h 08m block time **Furthest from equator** 45.5°N at 100% along **One lap of Earth** 1.3% of 40,075 km Of the [292 routes catalogued here](https://orbitflights.app/routes), this is the 281st longest. The Toronto to Montréal route drawn as a great circle arc on a globe ## What the aircraft actually flies over From Toronto the path crosses Canada. The furthest the great circle gets from the equator is 45.5°N, 100% 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: north-east out of Toronto, east into Montréal. Over this distance the curve has too little room to bend the compass. One economy seat on it is about 75 kg of CO₂e each way, counting non-CO₂ warming.
