Indeed. The only city pairs in the AC network where the distance between the two cities is greater than 11000 miles are EZE/SCL/GRU-some Asian destinations. All routes to SYD are under 11000miles with YYT-SYD being the longest at 10850miles.
As there are no good fares between South America and I´m perfectly fine with this enhancement.
