Surprisingly enough, flight 193 (the newly announced route from LAX to HKG) is only the fourth longest flight in the current AA system. Digging around aa.com produced the following thirteen flights all of which are over 6000 miles in length. Three of the longest four flights (137, 73, and 193) are or will be flown by the 77W. Most of the others are or will be flown by the 788. Mileage data is taken from aa.com.

Any other flights over 6000 miles that may have been overlooked?
