Perhaps you’ve flown on the world’s longest non-stop flight between Singapore and Kennedy Airport in New York City. Well, if you still want to be able to say you’ve flown on the longest non-stop flight, start making plans to take Qantas between Sydney and London. It will clock in at 10,576 miles (17,020 km) and take nearly 20 hours. You still have plenty of time to make a reservation. The flights won’t begin until late 2025.
