Qantas says it will launch Project Sunrise, a non-stop commercial service between London and Sydney, in October 2027. The route is expected to take about 22 hours and would be the longest commercial flight in the world, according to the airline and reporting about the plan. Both outlets describe the service as a significant long-haul undertaking, marketed under Qantas’s Project Sunrise initiative. The Daily Record reports that tickets are expected to go on sale from February 2027, while the Irish Mirror focuses on the planned October 2027 launch date and the expected duration of the flight. The announcements relate specifically to a direct London-to-Sydney service rather than connecting flights. The reports do not indicate further route details, aircraft type, or operational constraints beyond the planned timing and length. The plan is presented as an upcoming expansion of Qantas’s long-haul network with the aim of offering passengers a single nonstop journey over the extremely long distance.
