On Wednesday evening a Qantas Dreamliner from Buenos Aires landed in Darwin, completing the longest commercial route in the airline's 100-year history.
The mammoth flight took almost 18 hours to complete and flew over the coast of Antarctica.
The remarkable route was a repatriation flight for Australian citizens, forming the return leg of a charter flight carrying the Argentinian rugby team home after the Rugby Championship in Queensland.
QF14 took 17 hours and 26 minutes to complete the 15,020km route, and that is even after tailwinds shaved 5 minutes off the journey.
It is easily the longest route ever served by a Qantas craft, exceeding the previous record for London to Perth by an extra 200km.
