When going from the USA to Australia why do flights take such a long route across all the countries? Why not go the other way round?
Interesting. Is there anything else I should know about this topic?
One thing to note is that the longer route can actually be more efficient in terms of fuel consumption and time because of favorable wind currents over the Pacific. So, despite the longer distance, it may actually save time and fuel costs in the end.
