The first scheduled non-stop flight between Australia and the UK has touched down in London's Heathrow Airport.

Qantas Flight QF9 completed its 14,498km (9,009-mile) journey from Perth in just over 17 hours.

The airline is using the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, which is twice as fuel-efficient as the Boeing 747. ........

A great technological achievement but I don't fancy 17hrs in economy class.

I am flying to Oz at the end of May.....I have to say, the stop over is very appealing after seeing all the news reports.
