Not similar

Singapore Airlines have 2 CPT and 2 FOs
SIN/EWR is 18.5 hours.
LHR to SYD is 21.5
It’s an extra 3 hours.
How far do you keep adding on 3 hours and saying that’s ok?
You could say that 24.5 hours flight time is only 3 hours more. 28.5 hours is only 3 more again. Poor argument.
Singapore Airlines flies a lot of short range flying also. Less than 5% of A350 flying is ULR, Qantas Sunrise is 100% ULR.
I know your a Qantas angel or management. It must really upset you that Sunrise must be approved by proper Science. Will also need AIPA approval. Operating one sector of a pattern with 20 people on board getting special catering on their one trip out of the office isn’t science. It’s a PR show.
A guy who you heard saying its not too bad or justifying that’s it’s ok because it’s only 3 hours more than what Singapore flies seems to be your only line that you keep repeating.
PR flights flying only One direct sector with 20 pax and special catering are not science. It’s channel 7 breakfast TV worthy. Nothing more.
