Arriving: 21:55 local/01:55 ZULU
Flight Time: 10:15

Found this one on FlightAware.com. I don't think it's a regularly scheduled LAN flight. Maybe a special for the FIFA cup?
All right a few more now. So far I am touching just about every continent on this challenge. Last destination I have is VHHH and somehow trying to visit Athens.
Well you can visit Athens then. However it is a beautiful city.
#7
VHHH-LGAV
charter flight
Equipment: Olympic airways a340-300
Although Olympic airways changed to Olympic air and stopped long-haul flights with A340, it still remains as one of my beloved aircraft that my country' s national carrier has ever flown! Have a good flight!
I believe this is now the order and the flights after the timetable mix up. What happened, I believe is two pilots were submitting a flight at the same time and both #6 flights crossed pathways. I have had this happen before when posting subjects on the forum. It depends upon who has the faster fingers in typing.
[quote="Jeff Jett"]Well Pete, there ya have it!!! Around the world 2x Enjoy your trip. The only thing is that unfortunately you can't use the Olympic A340 since it's not a One World Partner Airline. And since you will be leaving from Hong Kong on your way to Athens, may I suggest the Cathay Pacific A340, it fits as they are based in Hong Kong anyway :)
Look forward to the pics :)

Mr. Jett VHHH to LGAV is a charter flight. I think that in charter flights you can use any livery you want. It has not got to be an one world partner.
You may fly a total of four (4) CHARTER FLIGHTS per month. A Charter flight is defined as a flight NOT on any posted timetable. It must be flown in a commercial AAV aircraft that you are ranked to use and between destinations that have runway facilities which support the type of aircraft used. For example, you can't reasonably expect to land a 737 on a 2000 ft. grass runway. Charter Flights are requested in your FREQ using the same notations as a regular flight. When requesting a charter, substitute the word "CHARTER" in place of the flight number and then list the departure and arrival airports as you would for a regular flight. Your Hub Manager will review your request for a charter when your FREQ is reviewed.
What that means as a Senior Captain is that you can fly any current AA or Oneworld partner equipment. If you have the retro endorsement you can fly any current or past AA or Oneworld partner equipment. Once you make commander you can fly any current AA/OW partner equipment and also charter jets (biz jets like a Gulfstream or Cessna Citation, etc) If you are a commander with a retro endorsement you can pretty much fly anything you want with or without wings. LOL
