Why does air follow a curved path?

Why does air follow a curved path?
Naturally, the shortest distance between two points is a curved line due to gravity etc, and the latter shaping the universe, and thus the path something would take while trying to travel in a straight line. That being said...it won't have the same effect on air. Air has no speed. It's there, and simply moves from a high pressure cell to a low pressure cell through osmosis. So depending on where that is, depends on how it will move so it really has no other reason than that...and not really an astronomy question due to that.
