This would be about 8,824 miles, some 500 miles longer than their current longest flight and 250 miles longer than the longest commercial scheduled flight in the world (DFW-SYD) once SQ axes their US flights. Possible, I am sure, but it must be a real stretch of the 777 capacity.

That said, who wouldn't love to fly LAX-AKL the long way?
