  • How do you survive the longest flight in the world? By flying with Singapore Airlines onboard their brand new Airbus A350-900ULR, of course! The plane has advanced technology to support such an epic journey and the meals are carefully planned to help reduce jetlag.
    But, check all of that out for yourself by watching this video about the longest flight in the world, the inaugural New York to Singapore flight onboard a brand new Airbus A350-900ULR Singapore Airlines.
    Singapore Airlines held a very impressive party. The video includes coverage of all of the festivities at the gate as well as the action onboard. You'll see the food served on the longest flight in the world as well as the entertainment and amenities provided on the inaugural New York to Singapore longest flight in the world.
    Perhaps the highlight of the Longest Flight in the World are the views from the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900ULR's massive windows. You'll see Canadian landscapes, icebergs, and the vastness of the Russian and Mongolian Steppe.
    I wasn't alone on this trip. I was joined by many other #AvGeeks including my friend Sam Chui who was also on the flight so he could experience the Longest Flight in the World with Singapore Airlines!
    Leave me a comment. How do you think you'd fare on the longest flight in the world? Would you feel refreshed afterwards? Or would you be wiped? How do you think the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900ULR did? Let me know!

    Great video, as usual. I have a sad story from the previous incarnation of this nonstop flight. I was a limo driver and picked up a woman at Newark who had just flown in nonstop from Singapore. On the way to her hotel she called home to Singapore and found out that a close family member had died unexpectedly. She called the airline, booked a seat, had me turn around, and got back on the SAME PLANE to fly nonstop Back home to Singapore. 36 or so hours in the air, with just a few hours in Newark in between flights. I felt so bad for her.

Some people never get to leave their home town and see the world, much less to do it in first (business) class style! That seat looks very comfortable and with exception of the canapé’s, the food looked AMAZING! Hope you enjoyed your flight. I give your review a thumbs up and pray one day I get to experience it. Who knows, maybe when HAL gets their 789’s, I’ll get to fly to LHR from HNL! Aloha

      The 787 is way better then the A350, not only did Airbus rip off the nose design but other then the engines and nose there isnt that much to say about it (its made of carbon fiber but the 787 beat it to that as well)

      The A350 has a higher percentage of composite materials in its making, and its nose is actually much closer to the A380 nose design than the one of the 787.

      The A350 is the template of future travel for me. The 787 just isn't as comfortable. More rattly in the cabin. I've flown the A350 a few times and, along with the A380, I think they're hands down the smoothest most comfortable planes. We took off from SIN enroute to DOH on Qatar & I barely even felt the plane leave the ground or any jolting on the acceleration, the take-off was exquisitely smooth, much like A380 take offs. I've rarely found 787 take offs to be like that (on a number of operators,Saudia,AirEuropa,Kenyan,BA,Qatar etc). The A350 is fabulous.

    Fabric refresh and crease release are actual useful for me... great addition! Most of the things they give us in amenity kits in-flight I never use (or even open the kit... usually save it and pass it on to family members that collect them). Another great video -- thanks for sharing!

    I flew JFK-BKK in 2006 when Thai had the flight. Very similar route. Took off at noon and because I did it in July, the entire flight was in full sunlight. Because we were above the arctic circle before sunset and slipped over the top of the Earth for morning in Asia. It was so neat.

    Nice job, Jeb!! It's very cool that you got to be on that flight. I just have one critique on this video: the volume is very irregular at times, especially in the first half of the video. In the future, consider maintaining a more consistent volume when editing, so the sound doesn't go from very loud to very soft! All in all, great job and I enjoyed the footage. All the UA-camrs like to say: "Just like that, the world has become a smaller place", and that's true! :-)

    It looked like when the arff truck was doing the water cannon salute it had both turrets running. One on the roof and the other is a bumper mounted turret. It looked like the one on the roof was straight and the bumper turret was being moved around. Awesome video as always, can’t wait for more once the rona allows us to travel again. I’ve already been pricing out my first international flight to go to Dublin next summer!

    I have followed Sam’s channel for a long time, imagine my surprise when I see him pop up on one of your videos. You both create great content. I have been following Sam lately as he is learning to be a pilot himself, and his videos have a little more technical focus, but I like yours from the standpoint of a traveler.

    Jeb, great video as always! At 11:29, the Captain mentioned about flying near 87 deg north latitude. That reminded me of a regulation I had read earlier in my Airline Transport Pilot written exam prep book. 14 CFR Part 121.7: The FAA requires U.S. operators to obtain approval prior to conducting polar operations (a) The North Pole area of operations includes the entire area north of 78 deg N latitude or the entire area south of 60 deg S latitude. Of course Singapore Airlines isn’t operating under the FAA but I found it funny that I had just read that regulation and then watched your video where the crew actually mentioned flying in a polar area! I’m easily amused!

    There was a time in my life when I hated business class because I couldn’t fly it. Hated walking through the plane and seeing those seats and going to economy. But now I’ve graduated to J I get so excited seeing these videos as I can actually try them out. Can’t wait for BA’s new suites, these are not on the route I fly, wish they were!
    Love your Batman, I heard today it’s been discontinued so good for you that’s something to hold on to.

    I have yet to board an A350, but I have flown Singapore Airlines (B777) and it was outstanding, from the service to the food to the comfort. I wish you had mentioned something about Changi Airport, one of the best international airports on the planet. My trip was from Atlanta to Surabaya, Indonesia. Unfortunately it was not non-stop and took over 30 hours. From ATL-NY-Paris-Moscow-Singapore-Surabaya. I boarded the Singapore Airlines flight in Moscow and it was the best leg of the flight. Thanks for the upload!

    Jeb, you nailed it again! Just the sort of information I want. Of course in a flight that long there are going to be some problems and you got them. There is enough info here to help me make an informed decision. I can't believe I haven't come across your reports before now. I was employed in the aviation industry for for 42 years, firstly in the commercial area but mostly (39 years in Flight operations) so you will understand my interest in your reports and my interest in the information therein. This is my hobby now, flying and in the highest class available, what else will I do with my money? Cheers mate!
