Explanation

San Francisco (North America) and Vladivostok (Far East Russia) are both located on the Pacific Ocean. The shortest route between them would be flying directly across the Pacific. Routes via New York-Madrid-Tashkent or Paris would be much longer, going across the Atlantic and overland through Asia/Europe.
