Qantas’ Longest Flight: London to Sydney

from Global News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Qantas is about to revolutionize air travel with the world’s longest direct flight, linking London and Sydney in 19-22 hours aboard specially modified A350-1000ULR jets. With only 238 seats to accommodate extra fuel and comfort, the airline’s new route dwarfs the current record holder—Singapore Airlines’ Singapore-to-New York flight, which doesn’t even offer economy. Passengers will enjoy a “Wellbeing Zone” and more legroom, but experts warn that economy travelers may still find the marathon flight taxing. Profitability hinges on premium fares, and after launching this route, Qantas eyes an even more ambitious stretch: Sydney to New York.
