Join us on our second leg of our trip to Australia. We arrive in Los Angeles from Toronto late in the evening as we wait for our 10:30 p.m. departure. We have limited time in the airport and we have limited ability to film as we are stuck in the connecting terminal. We get to watch the end of the Superbowl and have a drink and a snack before we board the epic 15 and a half hour flight to Sydney on United Airlines beautiful 787-9 Dreamliner. As we approach Sydney on a perfectly clear morning our approach around the east and south of the city gives us absolutely gorgeous shots of the coastline, Sydney Harbour, the Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
We would recommend this flight to anyone. The aircraft was only about 2/3 full and the staff immediately moved us from our original seats to seats that were more comfortable and that gave us the ability to lounge out in a row to ourselves. A very clean aircraft and very pleasant staff along with an almost turbulent free flight made for a very enjoyable trip. Meals and snacks were provided throughout. We would take this flight again anytime.
Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport is an international airport in Sydney, Australia, located 8 km (5 mi) south of the Sydney central business district, in the suburb of Mascot. The airport is owned by Sydney Airport Holdings. It is the primary airport serving Sydney and is a primary hub for Qantas, as well as a secondary hub for Virgin Australia and Jetstar, and a focus city for Air New Zealand. Situated next to Botany Bay, the airport has three runways. Sydney Kingsford Int'l Airport covers 907 hectares (2,241 acres) of land.
Sydney Airport is one of the world's longest continuously operated commercial airports and is the busiest airport in Australia, handling 42.6 million passengers and 348,904 aircraft movements in 2016-17. It was the 38th busiest airport in the world in 2016. Currently, 46 domestic and 43 international destinations are served to Sydney directly.
In 2018, the airport was rated in the top five worldwide for airports handling 40-50 million passengers annually and was overall voted the 20th best airport in the world at the Skytrax World Airport Awards.
Los Angeles International Airport, commonly referred to as LAX, is the primary international airport serving Los Angeles, California and its surrounding metropolitan area. In 2022, LAX handled 65,924,298 passengers, making it the world's sixth-busiest airport. As the largest and busiest international airport on the West Coast of the United States, LAX is a major international gateway for the country, serving as a connection point for passengers travelling internationally (such as East and Southeast Asia, Australasia, Mexico and Central America). The airport holds the record for the world's busiest origin and destination airport, because relative to other airports, many more travellers begin or end their trips in Los Angeles than use it as a connection.
