Even better... Travel from New York, NY to London, UK. That must be the most direct route - the computer calculated it!

Seems to work going from just about anywhere in the US to Europe. I tried Houston to Moscow and looks like I'd have to be a triathlete for that as well. Alas, they don't seem to recommend swimming the Pacific. Couldn't get directions from Houston to Tokyo or Honolulu, no driving route available.

I couldn't even get from Seoul to Tokyo. According to Google maps Korea doesn't have any roads !!!!
