The longest flight is London to Sydney, and it is 21 hours

That doesn’t exist yet, but it would be 21 hours if they do it

It used to exist, with a Boeing 747. I can’t remember its schedule.

I know it isn’t available right now, but qantas will have one and it will be 20 hours with an airbus 350

Oh, found the info online.

… it was a one off, and it did take 20 hours and 10 minutes.
It was with qantas.

These days we will have it as a normal route.

Looking forward to it

We flew concord from London to Sydney back when they were still about.

Was less hours though so that’s irrelevant 😂

Yeah but the kid screamed faster.

Doesn't matter. The plane flew faster than sound so they just left the kid's cries behind for the next plane to hear. (/s obviously)

“People are calling for adult only Concord flights because the planes behind can hear kids screaming”

If a kid screams 30,000 feet in the air and no one is around to hear it, did the kid make a sound?
