Singapore aircraft set the record for the longest flight in the world

Flight SQ22 Singapore Airlines ended in Newark after 17 hours and 52 minutes of flight. The Airbus arrived in the city on Friday after almost 18 hours of traveling from Singapore, completing the longest in the world of commercial flight. His flight marked the resumption of the flight, which was eliminated in 2013. The plane arrived at 5:29 am local time. He was in the air for almost 18 hours. Overall, the flight was scheduled for 18 hours and 25 minutes. The plane was carrying 150 passengers and 17 crew members. 16 has been covered 500 kilometers in the air.

“I feel well-rested,” says Christopher Alladin, 37-year-old canadian. “I’m lucky because I can sleep on the plane.”

The longest flight in history

Flights from new York to Singapore will be even more durable and will last for approximately 18 hours and 45 minutes. He was also scheduled to fly from Newark.

Singapore airlines offer only premium economy and business seats — no ordinary foremen.

“Even though you’re in premium eco, feels like flying first class,” said Aladdin, adding that in 2008 it was waiting for such a flight. “The flight went very smoothly, very quietly.”

His words were confirmed Danny He, the engineer and flight enthusiast from Singapore, after landing in Newark.

“After takeoff we were served a dinner of three options to choose from. I slept soundly, woke up and realized that there are about eight hours,” He says, which took the ticket back to Singapore right after landing in Newark.

“The team was very helpful and acted professionally.”

Ticket from Singapore to new York in one end of this flight is about 2150 dollars in premium economy and $ 3,500 round trip.
