Bris to darwin flying time
 

I was just wondering why it takes over 4 hours to fly bris to darwin, and takes 3h 45 min melb to darwin? i thought brissie would be alot closer?????????

I don't think MEL-DRW is 3.75 hours. When I flew it on JQ it was closer to 5 hours. I believe, however its a wind thing.

edit:nevermind:p

sounds like wind though.

Not sure which airline you're talking about?

DJ blocks are:

BNE/DRW 3hr45min
MEL/DRW 3hr55min

DRW/BNE 4hr10min
DRW/MEL 4hr35min

Great circle distances

MEL-DRW 3124 km
BNE-DRW 2849 km

have a look below, i just thought it was odd
