How do you develop a flight route view using HERE Maps?

Question

I wanted to develop a map component, where a user can create a route including airports. If the user selects two airports, then the screen should automatically show the air distance and duration between the two, in a map.

But, when I checked the docs, I'm seeing that HERE Maps does not even have 'flight' as a transport mode. Is this true? Can HERE Maps only work with road-based routes and no flight mode at all?

Yes, it is true that we are not supporting 'flight' as a transport mode. But you can show the path by drawing geodesic polyline as shown in below example.

Alright, thank you. That is exactly what we had in mind, as the alternative solution. But, is there a way to get the air distance/duration for the route? – Sarath Subramaniam Nov 18 '21 at 07:47

Currently we are not supporting such features. – Dec 13 '21 at 06:46
