However, taking long-haul flights is not a simple task but it saves time and brings convenience to passengers.
In recent years, advances in technology have allowed new aircraft designed with 250 seats to fly extremely long distances and make non-stop flights that were previously impossible, resulting in higher economic performance and significantly lower fuel consumption.
