Fly Non-Stop to Anywhere in the World

Delta announced today that it is going to begin using Boeing’s 777-200LR aircraft as early as 2008. This is significant because Boeing’s 777-200LR aircraft has the abiility to go farther than any commercial planes currently in use. How far? From anywhere in the world to anywhere else in the world.

Delta plans on using the new Boeing’s to offer non-stop flights to destinations halfway across the world. The new planes also include six-foot three inch long seats that recline into twin-size beds, privacy screens, and aisle access to all seats. The new planes should be about as easy and comfortable to sleep in as most trains, and should make flying from the US to Europe and Asia much less stressful.
