A huge Airbus A350-900ULR is being delivered to Singapore Airlines today
where, once in service, it will make the longest continuous flight in the
world, from Singapore to Newark airport—a flying time of just under 19
hours.

The ULR in the name of the craft stands for “Ultra Long Range,” which is
an apt name, considering this beast can cruise for 9,000 nautical miles
(or 9,537 miles). The A350-900 is capable of flying further than any other
commercial aircraft, with a maximum flying time of around 20 hours.

No one needs to be on a plane that long. That’s just ridiculous.

Unless you're a Brit who wants to fly nonstop LHR-SYD (10,573 mi.):
