Seven out of the 10 routes originate or terminate in the US with all but one touching Asia-Pacific as Singapore, New Zealand, and Australia feature heavily on the list. The list is currently set to change with at least two new routes starting in the next year that will shake-up the list including Qantas' planned Brisbane-Chicago route and Air New Zealand's planned Auckland-Newark route.

Two airlines currently compete on the 7,330-nautical mile route between the Bay Area and the Asian city-state, United Airlines and Singapore Airlines. United flies the route using the Boeing 787 Dreamliner while Singapore Airlines opts for the Airbus A350 XWB. Philippine Airlines' nonstop route between Manilla and New York saw its first year of non-stop service in 2019 after being debuted at the end of 2018, replacing one-stop service through Vancouver, Canada.
The nonstop route between Houston and Sydney is the longest route for United Airlines, which launched in 2018. The 7,467-nautical mile route is only 15 nautical miles longer than the next-nearest Sydney-Dallas route operated by Qantas. Over the course of 2019, 1,034 flights were flown on the 7,611-nautical mile route, which can be scheduled between 17 and 18 hours depending on the time of year.Christopher Pike/Reuters
Qantas launched the route in 2018 at which point it became the first regularly scheduled non-stop link between Australia and the United Kingdom, a title which it holds today. Flight times vary on the 7,829-nautical mile route but it can be scheduled for as long as nearly 18 hours in the westbound direction.
