At 06:26 local time on 1 October, the first Airbus A380 to serve
the world’s longest scheduled air route – Dallas Fort Worth to
Sydney – touched down in Australia’s largest city. It
marked the 60thanniversary of Qantas’s transpacific service
to the USA, which began with a Lockheed L-1049 Super
Constellation flight from Sydney to San Francisco in 1954. The
Australian flag-carrier is operating the DFW flight six times a
week with the A380, which replaced a Boeing 747-400ER on
the route.

To mark the event, we list the 10 longest current scheduled
air services by distance, courtesy ofFlightglobal’s Innovata

service as the same route).
