As is you would know or be able to verify what the actual distance is. Joogle can tell you anything they want and you will just believe it even though it makes no sense.
The distance could be 2x and you would never know if the airplane is moving faster than you believe. Flights times can very up to 4 hours, that is enough to cover 2000 extra miles.
Depends on the path you take.
Straight line.

Are you afraid to state a number or are you not allowed to?
Which is it?
There is no "number", they are all estimations.
He didn't ask about flight times, he asked about the distance.
All distances are approximations as every map will have different distances.
If you collect all the sources and average the values you will get a close approximation.
My point is you have no gauge to judge if a given distance is correct. This is called high IQ skepticism and critical thinking.
Completely absent from the globe religion.
