Ever heard of a flight that lasted 33 hours long? It was called the Double Sunrise Route… Named of course because you got to see the sunrise twice! The reason was after the fall of Singapore there was no other way to get from the UK to Australia via air. I will no longer complain about 15 hour flights!

There’s a video of one of the pilots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZCLPYbRi-c
