Last flight I was on from Chicago to London (787-800) was about 6hrs. Pleasantly surprised. Now, coming back from Vienna..forever. :)

And it didn't hit an iceberg :laugh:

EGKK to be exact, which certainly doesn't change the fact it's an awesome flight time indeed.

Well its not exactly Concorde but a 787 broke the speed record for an Atlantic crossing between KJFK and EGLL.  5 Hours and 13 minutes.

How is 776mph the record over the Atlatic. I hit 811mph in December just off the coast of Japan.

It's not the specific speed that was the record, but the time of the crossing from A to B.
