| ROUTE | DISTANCE | RECOMMENDED | WHY |
|---|---|---|---|
| London → Singapore | 5,900 nm | Global 8000 | Only one reaches non-stop — the other would need a fuel stop (5900 nm > 6,000 nm). |
| New York → Tokyo | 5,850 nm | Global 8000 | Only one reaches non-stop — the other would need a fuel stop (5850 nm > 6,000 nm). |
| Dubai → Los Angeles | 7,250 nm | Global 8000 | Only one reaches non-stop — the other would need a fuel stop (7250 nm > 6,000 nm). |
| Hong Kong → New York | 7,000 nm | Global 8000 | Only one reaches non-stop — the other would need a fuel stop (7000 nm > 6,000 nm). |
