  • The Top 10 longest flights in the world, as of 2018-2020. The new longest flight in the world, both by distance and time in the air, is about 9,534 miles and 19 hours. Can you imagine spending that many hours straight on an airplane? One must be mentally prepared for such day-long flights. The flight times listed in the video, are current as of October 2018, though these tend to vary due to factors like weather, climate conditions, and airport traffic at different times of the year. With all that in mind, here are the 10 longest flights in the world.

    Fun fact: The longest flight ever flown by a passenger jet was from Hong Kong to London on a Boeing test flight on November 9, 2005. The aircraft used was a 777-200 LR (LR stands for long range). Now usually this flight goes over Asia and Europe and it is 12 hours and 35 minutes. But in this flight, they decided to fly over the Pacific Ocean, America, and Atlantic Ocean to get to London. It was seen flying over Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York City. The flight was a whopping 22 hours and 43 minutes. They had to use 8 pilots for this flight. When they landed, they still had 2 hours worth of fuel left. It was enough to show off how long this plane can fly for.

    The longest flight in the world was performed by the Rutan Voyager in December of 1986. The aircraft was built for the mission and flew around the world, non-stop, without re-fueling. The flight took nine days and two pilots were on board. They flew 26,366 miles in total, blowing away all other long distance flights. They hold the record to this day, taking off from California heading West, and landing at the same airport nine days later.

    • @terraholdingco
      @terraholdingco Год назад +2

      @@josels1292 I don't see the reference to commercial flights in the title honestly.
      I suppose the author intended for their video to be about commercial flights, but, I figured I'd add to the topic in the discussion.
      But, as the title is written it could be taken in two ways literally: Distance, or time. The distance record I've already mentioned above.
      The time record is perhaps equally amazing: That record was performed over a period of 64 days, 22 hours, and 19 minutes between December of 1958, and February of 1959 in a Cessna 172. Wrap your mind around the logistics of that flight: Refueling, eating, sleeping, and relieving yourself, showering, changing the oil in the engine while it runs, and so on... Two pilots, John Timm and John Cook hold the title to that record.
      Your comment about the ability of a commercial airliner to circumnavigate the world if they simply remove seats, add some fuel tanks and see what they can do might not be as simple as you think. Here's the reason: The fuel load on the aircraft is typically already the heaviest thing, aside from the empty weight of the aircraft itself. Cargo jets already have the seats removed, allowing freight to be hauled instead of people. The longest range commercial aircraft is currently the 777X with an 11,500nautical mile range. It takes 21,600 nautical miles to fly around the world in a perfect circle. The 777X weight lifting limitations, would not be able to haul the necessary fuel load to bridge the extra 10,100 nautical miles. Here's a breakdown: To fly 11,500 nautical miles, the jet has to take on a 392,250 pound payload of fuel. Thats an amazing 52,300 gallons! The aircraft's maximum payload capacity thereafter, whether it's seats, or passengers, jello, or freight is an impressive 162,000 pounds. The aircraft requires 34.10 pounds of fuel per mile to fly. To fly an added 10,100 nautical miles, would require an added fuel capacity of 344,410 pounds of fuel, not to mention the weight of the fuel tanks, pumps, and plumbing weight. This would leave the aircraft 182,410 pounds over its maximum takeoff weight limitations, or more than 24,000 gallons of fuel short.
      The fact that what you claim to be potentially possible has never been done, might shed the best light on the fact that it wouldn't be possible with any modern-day commercial airframe ever invented to date. It lends even more credit to the folks that did perform a full circumnavigation of the world without refueling, on their own accord, and by their own design, in my opinion.

The second leg Singapore Airlines from Amsterdam to Singapore, the final leg Singapore to Brisbane, all in Business Class. Coming back the same route.

I usually spent 4-5 days there for work & flew back home same route. Did that for 5 years 2-3 times a year until Covid. The first year I was just excited to be going to London by year 5 I was over it & its definitely tiring.

    I flew from Hanoi to Toronto with transit in China. Practically the same distance with the longest flight here with Hanoi being not far away from Singapore and Newark being close to Toronto. The only good thing is since Toronto is 12hrs behind Hanoi, when you arrived, you have an extra 12hrs whereas if you flight the other way around from the place where time is behind forward, another few or many hours extra would seem to have been taken away when you arrive at your destination.

That is the shortest distance between Point A and Point B.

    It is interesting the longest SINGLE flight but that isn't the whole story. It might be made of multiple legs but having a system where you have to fly one distance, deplane, pass security again, take a long leg over the pacific, deplane, pass security again then another leg makes the total journey time without any effective break much longer than it seems.
    The first time I travelled from my home in Kyabram Australia to visit my son in Seattle it took 33 hours of travelling and connecting flights. Someone going from Sydney to London takes substantially less time for a similar distance.
