I have never read anything about the impact of such long flights on the crews. Even if you have extrea crew, they are still Humans and all onboard and subject to the same condidions as passengers. Isn't it a concern to anyone their ability to handle emergencies after 17 hours aboard a plane?
Interesting that the Qatar flight shows Auckland to Doha (westbound) as the longer leg, while the Emirates one lists Dubai to Auckland (eastbound). Perhaps it’s more the anticipated traffic for the time of day than the weather?
Distances are shown in statute mikes, probably as the news source is the USA. However Flight Aware is an aviation site, and distances should be shown in nautical miles - or possibly kilometers. Statute miles are not used for distances in aviation.
An American non-aviation publication catering to an American non-aviation readership. How terrible!
Twaddle.
It does look strange to see miles used. Presumably Forbes' target readership was American travellers. One can't help feeling embarrassed for the USA that they haven't gone metric yet.
Poppycock
The metric system is fantastic, but you don’t really know what you’re talking about.
