I frequently fly a 1.30 hour sector in a 747-400. On occasion we go to FL430 but this is the flight planning system choosing the most economical profile. Its worth noting as well that you are flying on 1013mb, so in the tropics a look at GPS altitude, interesting if you have it as you my be several hundred feet higher, than indicated on the altimeter.
