Qantas Tests 20-Hour Non-Stop Flights to See If Passengers Can Bear It
Qantas Airways Ltd. will run marathon ghost flights from New York and London to Sydney carrying just a few staff to see how the human body holds up before commercial services start. Qantas said Thursday it will simulate the world’s longest direct flights with Boeing Co. Dreamliners as soon as October. The payload of 40 passengers and crew, most of them employees, will undergo a host of medical checks and assessments. (www.bloomberg.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
This doesn't fit well with the ever decreasing seat space.
For those who do not have a subscription to Bloomberg, see here ... (I hate pay-walls)

Funny, I didn’t encounter a pay wall.
Hi Colin - When I opened the link, it said my "free viewing" was over, and I'd need to subscribe to "read further". I could essentially read the first few lines, before the text "faded to nothing" and I got ads. Found the BBC article to be OK.
I didnt recieve a pay wall either.
Your first few (five I think) are free, after that they want you to subscribe. I just viewed my last free article.
