Much of Europe to Japan, LAX to China or Australia, NYC to India or Japan (opposite directions). It's really quite common, you can check around by airport using this map with the duration filter set to 14+ https://www.flightconnections.com/flights-from-new-york-ewr

Yep, I live in Melbourne. It's the trans-continental bit I was querying.

Ah, good catch - I read right through that.

Europe -> South America, the southernmost parts like Montevideo or Buenos Aires.

There are direct flights from Madrid that take around 13-14 hours.

Transcontinental means within a continent. Last time I checked Europe and South America are not the same continent.

That would be intercontinental. Trans is across, inter is within.

Intra is within, as in intranet. Inter is accross or between, as in internet.

So transcontinental is accross the same continent. Intercontinental is between separate continents.

Sorry, brain fart.

To add to a sibling comment: Thanks to the Ukraine war and having to fly around both Russia and Ukraine, this is many additional routes from Europe toward East now that used to be shorter.

Auckland to London is about 23 hours.

Not in a single leg though, surely.

You typically have to stop in LA, Singapore, or the UAE. The NZ -> Europe flights are brutal, and the trip back is typically even longer.

true … longest non stop is something like london to perth aus at 16 hours
