I have seen a lot of stuff about flat earth vs. round earth. My only question is the flight patterns. Why would I have to take an entire day to fly all the way around the world to Australia? When Australia is seemingly so close to hawaii. Perhaps I’m ignorant to flight regulations. But I haven’t found an actual answer for that.
Answer: the jet stream. There are currents of air going around the earth in different directions at different latitudes, and it’s more efficient for the plane to fly with the winds and not against them. Sometimes you can’t avoid flying against the wind, but it’s more fuel efficient to fly with.
Well that might be true also but i think the main reason is emergency landing locations. You have to fly over areas where if something happened, you could land somewhere near or someone could come quick enough to save you.
That may make a little difference, eastbound vs. westbound, but Great Circle routes make a larger difference---and they are impossible if the Earth is flat.
But you are so ignorant. You omit entirely from your mind the hands-on proof of the Earth's roundness by the circumnavigation of Magellan, 500 years ago.
Apologies, but you missed the point of Patriotwoman9's question, which had to do with short flights between places that should be far separated on a Flat Earth. Jet streams are really not the appropriate answer. I am sorry that I mistook you.
Look at a Auckland to Santiago flight route. It is a 10 hour flight. That would be impossible if earth was flat. And you can see plane on this route. It should be longer than US to AUS if the earth was flat.
Question everything folks: please watch on Rumble: What on Earth Happened - Full Documentary or Parts 1 - 13. They are 20-30 min segments that will tell you how you have been duped - the earth is flat and this documentary proves it.

Did you mean to respond to someone else? I’ve been advocating for round earth.
