Not necessarily

Sure a layover occurs. But it is one ticket for the flight.

Sure when I travel and have a layover some get off some get on. How it works. I stay onboard or have to go to another plane. But I book the entire trip.

If lucky no layover.

@Steve Angell if you would like search flights from Johannesburg to Sydney for me

And tell me how many of the options stop in Asia

I spent hundreds of hours researching this. It is a lot harder than just looking at flights you can supposedly book. Some seem to be fake and they never ever actually fly. Or rarely. These are often far more expensive to get people to not book them.

Just tell me how many

If the flight doesn’t show up in the search it is not getting booked

Looks to me there are a lot of them.

In fact, there are 5 that stop in Dubai

And close to 50 that don’t

So saying that flights don’t make sense on a globe earth

Is just false

Where do they stop instead? The ones I found did not list that. Perhaps with a lot more work they would.

Actually I have in front of me where they stop

Everyone I found stops in Dubai.

the first the first 16 or so on the list stop only in Australian cities

I would love to know what website you are using

Much shorter flights much less time to get there. Perth is closer than Dubai.

I am about truth. If these are real. Well I will have to find out are they real.

I have found many which were not actually real.

They would claim they had them but if you went on one there would always be a big delay or it would get canceled.

So you’re saying every single flight leaving from Johannesburg tomorrow will be canceled?

Seems likely

Johannesburg to Perth would be what to research.

They seemed to fly daily.

I am not saying anything other than it makes sense to find are they real. Seen far too many that were not real.

I am about truth. If these are real and they take the time stated or close to it. Well that would call into question the flat earth. I am an honest person.

Before everytime I found one of these it hardly ever flew and was far more expensive. This is still a hundred dollars more than the much longer flight through Dubai but that is not far more expensive. Just 8% or so.

What do I find when I look for videos. Globe earth videos lots of fake ones. None that seem real. Not surprised.

Another just showed aircraft noise and a blue screen with data. Another just landing in Perth.

So seems this is indeed FAKE.

@Steve Angell I’ll leave you to think about the fact that hundreds of people a day book these flights from SA to Australia, and you are saying that every person had their flight cancelled. Also, almost all the flights that stopped in Dubai are 1000 dollars more (twice as expensive) than the ones that fly straight to Australia
Oh yeah and on the globe and the flat model Dubai is substantially closer than Perth, so your above statement is just outright false.

Goodnight

Yet all I can find is obviously fake videos of the flight. No one excited about the huge saving in time going there directly. Right.

Show me a video of a plane going from Dubai to South Africa

There are also flights to Perth going through Dubai. They would never do that if they could fly directly to Perth. It takes longer Dubai to Perth than supposedly Johannesburg to Perth. No airline would go that far out of the way with no valid reason.

The way DDG works it showed the flight. Either direction.

Ping me if you have a video, otherwise ill assume your flight is also fake
