Travel can be as short as a trip to a neighboring town, or traversing our entire planet.
For some, the bigger the trip, the bigger the adventure. If you’re really adventurous (and love flying), maybe you’re up for one of the longest flights available.
We’re talking, many, many hours in the sky. From the 18+ hour flight from New York to Singapore, to a mere 17 hours from Perth to London, these paths crisscross the whole globe.
