QF7879 FLIGHT SYDNEY -LONDON Cabin during departure and arrival Qantas
Flight QF7879 is apparently the world’s longest passenger flight by a commercial airline both for distance, at 17,800 kilometers (about 11,060 miles), and for duration in the air, at 19 hours and 19 minutes.
There is now a new generation of “so-called ultra long haul flight”s that will directly connect far-flung Sydney with destinations across Europe and the United States.
The Qantas Boeing 787 Dreamliner plane arrives at Sydney International Airport after flying direct from New York on Sunday, October 20, 2019 in Australia.
Qantas will operate the flights later this year, with medical scientists and health experts on board to conduct studies in the cockpit and the cabin to help determine strategies to promote long haul inflight health and wellbeing on ultra-long haul flights.
It will be the first commercial airline to ever fly direct from New York to Sydney.
It comes as the national carrier continues to work towards the final frontier of global aviation by launching non-stop commercial flights between the US and the UK to the east coast of Australia in an ambitious project dubbed “Project Sunrise”. David Gray /Getty Images for Qantas
