Longest flight ever landed
Qatar Airways has put down a record with the longest non-stop scheduled flight ever.
The trip takes an hour and ten minutes longer, because of the wind. The record for the longest non-stop scheduled flight was until now the name of Emirates. Flying from Dubai to Auckland. That flight is about 300 kilometers shorter.
Flight QR920 was welcomed in Auckland with a water salute.
