They sail in curves because that is the shortest path. It seems curved because it is plotted on "flat"map, aka Mercator charts. If you were to plot the path on an actual globe (not perfectly sphered but assumed so for ease of calculation), it will look like a straight line from top view. Hope that clarifies
