Boeing's Dreamliner flies world's longest non-stop routes including Perth-London

Another significant route operated by Qantas connects Perth with Paris Charles de Gaulle over a distance of 8,863 miles. This route was reintroduced in July 2024 after a two-decade hiatus and reflects growing demand for direct long-haul flights without stopovers. "In recent years, we have seen a significant increase in customers wanting to fly direct on long-haul routes and avoiding stopovers wherever possible," said Qantas Group CEO Vanessa Hudson.

Melbourne's link to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport spans about 8,992 miles and represents another major transpacific connection facilitated by Qantas' Dreamliner fleet. The airline has scheduled multiple flights throughout March on this route using their six-year-old Boeing 787-9 aircraft.

Finally, the longest non-stop Dreamliner flight worldwide links Perth with London Heathrow at an impressive distance of 9,009 miles. Qantas began operating this daily service in March 2018 but paused during the pandemic before resuming in May 2022.

These routes demonstrate not only the capabilities of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner but also airlines' strategic focus on connecting distant markets directly.
