A Qantas Sunrise Airbus aircraft completes a record-style non-stop journey from Melbourne to the Airbus plant in Toulouse, France, after flying for more than 24 hours. Across multiple reports, Airbus states the plane stays airborne for 24 hours and 24 minutes, covering 23,075 kilometres without stopping. The aircraft then lands at the plane’s factory in Toulouse, where it is based for production and related activities. Other outlets describe the landing directly, saying the Airbus plane touches down in Toulouse after the uninterrupted flight from Melbourne. The coverage notes that the flight is conducted without any intermediate stops, emphasizing the duration and distance achieved during a single continuous trip. While the reports focus on the aircraft’s airborne time, distance and destination, they do not cite additional details about the purpose of the flight beyond the non-stop delivery-style travel and the aircraft’s arrival at Airbus facilities.
