It helps you minimize travel time and optimize fuel use. I think the reason is because when traveling on a great circle, a circle whose plane passes through the center of a sphere, it would take alot longer than traveling on a smaller circle.
For example:
When traveling on the equator it will take longer to get from europe to U.S but when traveling on the meridian it will take a shorter time.
