Hi all
I'll be flying with United from SFO-SYD in August and noticed the flight time is somewhere in the order of 14.5 hours. I didn't realise standard 747-400 aircraft could sustain this distance. Does United (and Qantas, for that matter) use the 400ER variant on this route, or am I mistaken as to the range of a standard 747-400?
Look forward to your elaboration.
Thanks, Geoff.
