Airbus A380 features world's longest nonstop flight from Auckland to Dubai

Auckland to Dubai holds the record as the longest nonstop commercial Airbus A380 flight, with a block time of up to 17 hours and 25 minutes. Operated by Emirates, this route is part of a list that includes flights from ten airlines using the A380 aircraft. Other airlines in this group are All Nippon, Asiana, British Airways, Etihad, Korean Air, Lufthansa, Qantas, Qatar Airways, and Singapore Airlines.

Hi Fly Malta also operates two A380s: one undergoing maintenance and another stored. Global Airlines uses Hi Fly's services for operations but currently has no scheduled flights.

The order of these long-haul flights is determined by maximum block or scheduled time. This metric accounts for taxi time at airports and short delays. The data covers July to September only and may change later in the year.
