Qantas Unveils World’s Longest Nonstop Flight

Qantas is about to revolutionize air travel with the world’s longest nonstop flight, linking Sydney and London in just 22 hours—cutting travel time by up to four hours. Powered by specially modified Airbus A350-1000ULR jets with extended range, this new route is part of their ambitious Project Sunrise, aiming to eliminate layovers and connect Australia directly to global hubs. With 12 of these ultra-long-range planes set to join the fleet, carrying up to 238 passengers across four classes, the service launches in late 2027 after tickets go on sale in February 2027. The airline is also preparing for a future Sydney-to-New York route, training crews and maintenance teams to handle these record-breaking journeys.
