This voyage will refresh Singapore Airlines’ nearly 19-hour direct flight record (Singapore’s direct flight to New York), making it the longest direct flight in the world.

London’s direct flight to Sydney is a long flight project proposed by Qantas. Project SunriseIn part, the project also includes direct flights from New York to Sydney.
