Qantas Plans Ultra-Long-Haul Flights to Break Records

Qantas, the Australian airline, is making a comeback with ultra-long-haul flights, signaling the resurgence of international travel following the devastating impact of the Covid pandemic. Recently, Qantas introduced a new route connecting New York and Sydney with a layover in Auckland, New Zealand, using Boeing 787 Dreamliners instead of the previous stop in Los Angeles. However, Qantas is now aiming for even lengthier journeys: nonstop flights that span from Sydney to both New York and London, boasting a duration of approximately 20 hours.
