What's the longest point to point trip you've done (one way) to get to your destination as a continuous trip (without stopovers on the way)?
When coming over to Europe, I realised that I did book myself a very sub-optimal trip - "time in transit" wise: 43 hours door to door. I could easily have done it in about 30 hours, too. But it was as a bearable trip as they can be.
Depart home 0800 (AEST/UTC+10), QF81 SYD-SIN departs 1150. A catch-up with a friend in SG before connecting to QF1 (scheduled 2330), in LHR connecting to AY1332, arriving in HEL a little late and combined with bag delivery being slower than usual, missed my intercity train. Lucky they go every hour and the next one still had seats available. Then the local transport to my accommodation, arriving at 2000 (UTC+3). All in all 43 hours.
What's been a long one way trip for you?
