Since I started a DME-AKL on a 77L route which at 16,200km is 2,400 km longer than SYD-DFW, which is the longest active real-world scheduled passenger flight, it got me thinking...what is *your* longest route that isn't burning money?
I am sure one will be SYD-LHR which is 490 km longer than DME-AKL, therefore I know there is at least one longer flight than mine.
I have no long haul flights. I have quite a new airline and I have never been intrested in going long haul. I have about a fleet of 70 Saabs and CRJ. My longest flight has been GOT-IST but I do not operate it anymore as I found a bettre route to put the aircraft on. I would say my longest at the moment is ARN-BFS, ARN-MMK or GOT-DUB. I am planning to have long haul routes by the end of the year. I think my longest then will be ARN-LAX.
Flying that route with a Boeing 767-300ER, equipped with recliner shorthaul in Economy and Full Bed in Business Class. Plane absolutely at it's limits but +50% margin :D
Longer and still profitable routes from TRN only possible to Australia & New-Zealand or Hawaii
Nothing too long, just WUH - ATL at 12,648 km and 14:19 on my 787-9. At 84.7% but very profitable :D as I only have 161 comfort plus, 25 full bed wide and 8 luxury suites. The first class though is almost empty
SIN-JFK was longest real world route before Singapore Airlines has cancelled it. I just made it, for now I earn half million per flight, and I am still changing prices to higher ones. :)
