Qantas Shatters Longest Commercial Flight Record | UK News

Qantas just smashed aviation records with a 24-hour, 24-minute non-stop flight from Melbourne to Toulouse aboard an ultra-long-range A350-1000ULR, covering over 23,000 km without a single stop—likely breaking the 2005 record. This milestone flight, part of “Project Sunrise,” was the second most tracked in Flightradar24’s history, watched by 3.6 million fans. The jet, set to debut in April 2027, will power future daily non-stop Sydney-London routes by slashing travel time from five days to just 19-21 hours, carrying 238 passengers with 20,000 liters of fuel onboard.
