English term or phrase: the great circle route method
Govori se o kompenzaciji koju aviokompanija nudi putnicima koje iz razloga bezbednosti/public health i dr. ne primi u avion iako imaju regularno kupljene karte. Kompenzacija izmedju ostalog zavisi i od daljine odredista, pa se distanca racuna uz pomoc tog metoda:

In determining the distance, the basis shall be the last destination at which the denial of boarding will delay your arrival after the scheduled time. The distances shall be measured by the great circle route method.

Explanation:
A great circle path is the shortest path on the surface of a sphere between two points on that sphere. Technically, the term geodesic path should be used since Earth is not a true sphere, but the great circle terminology is common usage.
