Simple distances surely..
Whenever you look at a map, to smooth the globe onto a 2d piece of paper the northern and southern lattitudes get compressed.. Creates very different distances to what you would expect..
The alcan highway is 1000's of miles.. Yet when you look on a map you think, hey no sweat.. I drove that puppy for days and days !!
Also bear in mind when flying you always use the 'great circle' routes due to earths curves also..
