Longest non-stop flight you've been on? (regulations, 747, weight, drive)

London - Bangkok 12,5h

[LifeSurfer]

Rio de Janeiro to NYC = 10 hrs and some minutes. (it was worth it, )

[wit-nit]

Los Angeles, CA to Sydney, Australia.

BWI to Las Vegas - about 5 hours. But next year I'll be going from Dulles in VA to Paris. Haven't gotten my flight itinerary yet but at the very least it'd be an 8 hour flight if it were non-stop.

Did a Japan to Detroit hop many years ago. About 14 hours or so, if I recall correctly. Fortunately, it was back in the day when they gave you pretty good food on the airlines and there were two bars on the plane.

Paris to Dallas/Fort Worth. About 11 hours.

That would be my shortest as well, except I only flew it in reverse from Maui to Honolulu.

@DomRep It will take 7hr 30min at the very least.
@TexasDillo some A380s will give you a pretty close experience!

Longest nonstop as a passenger was on UAL from Melbourne to LAX 13h 30m if I recall.

Longest nonstop flight as pilot in command was last summer from St Georges Quebec (YSG) to Schefferville (YKL) at 546 nautical miles and 5h 7m.
