World's longest flight: Emirates route will cross nine time zones on non-stop 17.5 hour voyage

There’s time enough to take off from the Gulf, eat three lunches, cross nine time zones, read an improving novel and still have a solid eight hours sleep before touching down beside the Pacific. When passengers emerge blearily from the aircraft, they will have been on board for almost 18 hours.
