The air corridors connected the three West Berlin airports of Tempelhof, Tegel and Gatow with other airfields/airports. Each air corridor was only 20 mi (32 km) wide, while the circular-shaped control zone had a 20 mi (32 km) radius, making it 40 mi (64 km) in diameter; thus allowing aircraft room to manoeuvre for weather and take-off and landing.
Air travel is used for greater distances within Germany but faces competition from the state-owned Deutsche Bahn's rail network. High-speed trains called ICE connect cities for passenger travel with speeds up to 300 km/h. Many German cities have rapid transit systems and public transport is available in most areas.
The English Channel is one of the world's busiest seaways carrying over 400 ships per day [20] between Europe's North Sea and Baltic Sea ports and the rest of the world. As well as its role in freight movement, sea transport is an important part of Europe's energy supply. Europe is one of the world's major oil tanker discharge
The tunnel will be a major connection between central Europe and Scandinavia. It will shorten the travel time between Lolland and Fehmarn from 45 minutes by ferry (excluding waiting and boarding time) to 10 minutes by car and seven minutes by train. [4] [3] The electrified high-speed rail line will be capable of reaching 200 km/h (125 mph). [5] [6]

The Wall Street Journal explained that the game was "created as a marketing gimmick in June by TravelPod, a travel Web site owned by Expedia". It noted that Traveler IQ Challenge fit into the growing category of casual games and contextually came at a time when there was a "renewed interest in geography, stimulated by new technologies like GPS ...
Solution of a travelling salesman problem: the black line shows the shortest possible loop that connects every red dot. In the theory of computational complexity, the travelling salesman problem (TSP) asks the following question: "Given a list of cities and the distances between each pair of cities, what is the shortest possible route that visits each city exactly once and returns to the ...
