What are for the moment the longest NONSTOP commercial flights worldwide by aircraft type. So no special delivery flights, but flights where you and I can by tickets for (assuming we have enough money for full business class flights )?
I have added some guesses, please share your ideas.
All variants are considered as 1 type, e.g. 333 includes original 333 as well as HGW, 772 included 777-200LR, 777-200ER, etc...
AIRBUS
318: JFK-LCY (BA)
319:
320:
321: LHR-THR (BD), or some American East Coast - West Coast?
332: CDG-KIX
333:
342:
343:
345: SIN-EWR (SQ)
346:
388: DXB-YYZ (EK)

Quoting Cory6188 (Reply 5): I'm pretty positive that CO doesn't fly the 752 on EWR-ATH -- just checked their schedule, and it only shows the 764 scheduled into the future.
They don't. They've never flown them farther than TXL.

Quoting richie72 (Reply 2): This must be one of the longest B737-800 flights I guess?
The longest scheduled nonstop 737 flight I can think of is AMS-IAH.
Quoting Cory6188 (Reply 5): I'm pretty positive that CO doesn't fly the 752 on EWR-ATH
I believe that EWR-TXL is CO's longest 757 route, though Delta flies CVG-AMS with their 757s, which are PW powered. There was also the one off DL 757 flight on NRT-SEA.
Why do Aerospace Engineering students have to turn things in on time?

Unfortunately DL no longer flies CVG-AMS with the 757. One of the longer ones still flying is DKR-JFK. This flight routinely takes between 8:30 - 9:00 of flight time. There may be longer as I do not claim to be the expert on this.

After lurking here for long time I signed up today so here we go...let the journey begin
LH (PrivatAir) - FRA-PNQ is way up there as well as far as longest non-stop route flown with 737-800. This one used to be all business service but was changed to mix class few months ago. Great circle mapper puts it at 4160 miles.

ANA Business Jet [Now does offer some Y seats] operates 737-700 between BOM-NRT [sometimes it makes a technical halt at NGO] distances are 3497 Nm for BOM-NGO
Also can anyone confirm which is the longer route is it SIN-EWR or EWR-SIN

Though HKG-MEX is not an scheduled flight, it is the longest with a distance of 7650 nm. The flight, an AM 77E was used to repatriate stranded Mexicans in China during the AHN1 outbreak last year and was operated with 165 pax nonstop. If this flights counts, the lists is as follows:

25 FlyDeltaJets87: AFAIK, the longest 767-400 route is JFK-IST by DL. If someone knows that's not correct, feel free to edit: AIRBUS 318: JFK-LCY (BA) 3017nm 319: 320: 3
26 bikerthai: BUG ALERT . . . fortunerunnner, for some reason, my screen shows you joining "DEC 1969" as the post header. How did you manage that bikerthai
27 ojas: For the following I have. A319: DOH - BCN 2627 nm A320: DOH - TXL 2379 nm A321: DOH - CMB 1951 nm A333: DOH - MNL 3490 nm A342: AMM - ORD 5419 nm B772
28 drerx7: AMS-IAH is a BBJ, not a 737 technically, and its not a BBJ2 which has a 738 fuselage, its a BBJ with a 73G fuselage length.
29 trex8: JFK-JNB is not IIRC non stop. the longest non stop flight on a A343 today is I believe CIs LHR-TPE which has a 15hr flight time(it does not route GC o
31 UALORD: ORD-AUH is a A346 EY and is 6322nm.[Edited 2010-07-26 12:19:57]
32 Bralo20: The BBJ1 (and BBJ-C), BBJ2 and BBJ3 are all Boeing 737's (700/800/900ER) since they are included in the 737 certificate, they are technically just or
33 GothamSpotter: JFK-JNB is nonstop. JNB-JFK stops in Dakar.
34 GSPflyer: The longest A346 Flight is SYD-AUH on EY @ 6,510 NM
36 CrimsonNL: I don't think the AMS-IAH should be counted. As mentioned before, it's a BBJ which has added fuel capacity over the "regular" 737-700. Martijn
37 fortunerunnner: LOL...I'm not sure how that happened. May be I'm the inventor of internet and should copyright airliners.net as the founding member
38 steex: This is definitely not the longest 333 flight - ATL-FCO, DTW-FCO, and JFK-ATH are all longer off the top of my head. ATL-FCO on DL is the longest of
39 fortunerunnner: LH (PrivatAir) - FRA-PNQ is 3614 nm and according to LH website its 737-800 operating thrice a week in mixed class configuration.
40 BlueFlyer: That is also a A319LR, QR's two A319s are both of the LR version. The quest for the longest "regular A319" flight hasn't been answered yet.
41 330lover: OK, updated awaiting info about longer trips on 333 OK, updated OK, updated. New list follows soon.
42 ojas: AI DEL - SIN : 2241 nm As for B739, I know 9W operates one between BOM and DEL which is 613 nm, and it is a non ER version.
43 fortunerunnner: I think you are confusing the shortest and longest threads. 613nm is awfully short and I think 739s operate much longer distance than that all over t
44 ag92: I do believe it is actually about 2584 miles
45 sw733: Which, IIRC, ended up getting cancelled...
46 FlyDeltaJets87: 2241 nautical miles is equal to 2584 miles (also known as "statute miles"). One nautical mile is approximately 1.151 miles.
47 web500sjc: SAA a346 flight JFK-JNB does not stop and it is 6925nm... DL283, SEA-NRT is an a333 length is 4769nm DL635 B763, length 5124nm
48 FlyDeltaJets87: According to Delta.com, DL635 is CVG-SFO-NRT-PEK. The SFO-NRT leg is 5109 miles, which means it can't be that long in nautical miles. SFO-NRT is 4453
49 RodRB: What about ACA092 YYZ-SCL? 5359 miles http://flightaware.com/live/flight/ACA92

54 FlyDeltaJets87: For the 767-300, I'm adding NRT-MEX by Aeromexico AIRBUS 318: JFK-LCY (BA) 3017nm 319: DOH-BCN (QR) 2627nm 319LR: CDG-PHC (AF) 2632nm 320: DOH-TXL (QR
56 RJLover: 737-600: YYZ-YYJ at 1825NM.... I think that is the longest 736 flight.
57 FlyDeltaJets87: It's not my list. Just Copy and Paste the list and insert your corrections/additions.
58 Andaman: Found a bit longer, next winter season: 333 HEL-KBV (AY) 4509nm

62 Viscount724: SEA-NRT is 4144nm. Your 4769 figure is statute miles.
63 330lover: Thanks for correcting, overlooked this. And off course, will correct it in the list. Will become the longest so far.
64 yeogeo: Just for the sake of putting up there something for the 717, there’s MKE-FLL scheduled from Sept11-Saturdays on FL: 1081nm. Surely somewhere thereâ€
65 KFlyer: The following list might serve as a source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-stop_flight It has longest flights, and then seperated by type and airline
66 RJ111: Do AR fly EZE-FCO with the A342? If so that's longer - 6013nm.
67 330lover: How could I forget? I flew it in March this year. Although on 343, but they operate 342 as well.
68 OzGlobal: As pointed out above, QF regularly do MEL-LAX on 744, even if the route is mainly 744ER. Hence, this makes this the longest 744 route as well.
69 PlymSpotter: Some notes: Qatar Airways only fly the A319-100LR, so the BCN flight can't be the longest non LR route. The longest standard model flight is IIRC; PRG
70 Andaman: Blue1 (SASFinland) is getting an all B717 fleet, next winter their 717 will fly KTT-CDG 1,310nm once weekly, to carry French tourists to Lapland.
