If it's for a route, plug in the address and airport here

Is that not a great circle, or am I fooled by the projection of the map?

The tool that draws the route just uses the same technique any student
would; it draws a straight line. Sectional maps use the Lambert
Conformal Conic projection so a straight line should be close to
describing a great circle route.
