Explained in plain English
Why fly non-stop?
Non-stop flights, like Qantas's planned Sydney to London route, remove the need for layovers, significantly reducing overall travel time and potential connection stress. While the journey itself is long, the convenience of a single, direct flight is a major draw for many passengers, particularly business travellers, despite the higher operational costs for airlines.
