Note: Distances between cities in Europe are calculated using the Haversine Formulae which gives great-circle distances between two points on a sphere from their longitudes and latitudes. In other words, the figures above represent the shortest distance over the earth’s surface - giving an ‘as-the-crow-flies’ distance between the points (ignoring any hills!).
