Qantas Prepares to Break the 10,000 Mile Barrier
Source ↗ 👁 1 💬 0
It is official. One of the last meaningful routes in the world that required a connection due to distance will be getting nonstop service starting in October 2027. Qantas has announced that is when the Sydney – London flight will begin on the Airbus A350-1000ULR. Tickets go on sale in February. This will mark the first time a route over 10,000 miles has been flown nonstop on a regular scheduled basis, and while it should work, it feels like more of a gamble than Qantas would like everyone
