Longest 3 Segment Itinerary?
Was having a discussion with a friend about the longest nonstop flights and this topic just came up...what would be the longest 3 continuous segments back to the origin would be with flights currently in service?
The most I've gotten so far is
DFW-SYD 8,578 mi on QF
SYD-DOH 7,688 mi on QR
DOH-DFW 7,932 mi on QR
Total 24,197 mi
Thinking there should be an itinerary with more...

Once UA starts IAH-SYD service, you can then go via DOH.
24,332 miles

Before UA cancelled IAH-AKL service, that would've been longer by about 100 miles.

Looking a little further ahead, if/when QF get the nonstop SYD LHR going, BA to SCL, LATAM to SYD, QF to LHR...
