Feature Request
-----------------------
What would you like to see us add to this API?

Besides road distances, distances traveled via plane, helicopter etc. would be of high interest as well. Alternatively, direct lines between City A and City B would be a great alternative (instead of the actual flight route).

Thanks,
Jan-Niclas Rüter

Any update on this?
I was also trying to compute distances among different countries.
It is strange that this is not implemented because while using Google maps, they already tell you the real distance between two points in whatever continent is each.
Thanks you 👍
