How far is Monett from Arkansas - driving distance (2024)

Flying non-stop from Arkansas to Monett

Now let's assume you have a private jet and you can fly in thefastest possible straight line between Arkansas (AR) andMonett, Missouri. 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: 162 miles or 260 km

Flight time: 31 minutes

The straight line flight distance is 88 miles less than driving on roads, which means the driving distance is roughly 1.5x of the flight distance.

Your plane flies much faster than a car, so the flight time is about 1/5th 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.
