How far apart are the host cities?
Straight-line distances between the eight venues, in kilometres. Anything over about 500 km means a flight: Brazil has no intercity passenger rail, and long-distance buses take a day or more. As a rule of thumb, a direct domestic flight covers 1,000 km in about 1 hour 45 minutes.
