July 19, 200619 yr Actually I have never seen any HKG-LHR flightplans with a flight time of less than 12 hours even with 744 (and your plans are all 340). Is this caused by tailwinds or anything else? Also I'd like the 744 flightplan on similar days as a comparison, thanks a lot!
July 21, 200619 yr Author I was on a CX 744 flight last year that was 11h20min. I think there are just strong tail winds on the route.
July 21, 200619 yr 11:20 is about the average flight time of LHR-HKG. So I'd imagine most LHR-HKG flights would be delayed at arrival if HKG-LHR takes 11:20 that day. Am I correct?ps. Do you have the flightplan of that flight as well (and date), thanks!
July 22, 200619 yr Author I think there are some strng headwinds going from HKG-LHR but strong tailwinds the other way round (LHR-HKG). And also, sorry I don't have the plan for it :-(
