The 10 Longest Non-Stop Flights in The World in 2022
As the aviation industry evolves out of the pandemic, airlines are once again focusing on long-haul flights. In this post, we share the top 10 longest flights in the world in 2022.
Singapore Airlines flight between New York JFK and Singapore is currently the World’s longest non-stop flight.

Video: Finnair New A350 – The NO Recline Business Class Seat
I flew on Finnair A350 from Helsinki to London Heathrow. This flight features the new Finnair Business Class and Premium Economy cabin.
The new Business Class seat is a bit odd from the start, there was no recline function so you have to slide down yourself. There’s also no seat back cushion apart from pillows. Later, I found out the seat is one of the lightest in Business Class. I felt quite comfortable being in a “Z” position. The privacy is excellent even without a door. When in full recline, your feet slide into a box. The bed is long enough for me. There are some pros and cons of the new Finnair Business Class seat. I also checked out the new Premium Economy and Economy class during the flight.
