If we didnât mention it before, the new American Airlines flight from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport to Hong Kong, at 8,119 miles, is now the longest flight in Americanâs network. The other flight launched Wednesday, DFW-Shanghai, China, is the second longest AA flight at 7,346 miles.
As of Mar 1st'2016, the longest commercial airline flight is Dubai-Auckland on an Airbus 380. Once Emirates starts the Dubai-Panama City flight later this year or in 2017, that will be the longest flight ever. The Dubai-Auckland flight has beaten the previous longest flight between Dallas and Sydney operated by Qantas.
