Singapore (SIN) is third at 6,764 miles, served by seven daily flights operated by British Airways, Singapore Airlines, and Qantas. The airlines use a mix of Airbus A380 and Boeing 777-300ER aircraft for these services.

Santiago de Chile (SCL) holds the second spot with a distance of 7,227 miles. British Airways operates this route exclusively in January using Boeing 787-9s.

The longest non-stop route from London Heathrow is to Perth (PER), stretching over 8,988 miles. Qantas launched this service in March 2018 and continues with daily flights aboard its Boeing 787-9s.

London Heathrow's global reach includes these long-distance connections and many others across all inhabited continents. It remains an essential hub for international travel.
