What are the longest flights in the world? A question that we encounter more and more frequently. In January 2015, I wrote about TOP 10 longest flights by plane. I think it's time to update their list.

Here that the year 2016 comes with new changes in the ranking of long and very long flights. Following its inauguration on March 1, 2016, the Dubai-Auckland route has become the longest in the world. On the Auckland - Dubai segment, the distance of 14193km is covered in 17 hours and 15 minutes, without stopping. The route is operated by Boeing 777-200LR aircraft.

Those from OAG (Air Travel Intelligence) have contributed considerably to the realization of this ranking. Below you have top 15 longest flights by plane (by distance).
