Hawaiian Airlines will start direct flights between Honolulu and Boston this   
   summer season. With an average flight time of 11 hours, this will be the   
   longest domestic service in the United States, and also one of the longest in   
   the world.   
       
   The Hawaii-based airline uses an Airbus A330-200 on the route five times a   
   week, with room for 18 passengers in First Class and 260 in Economy. The   
   Airbus takes more than ten hours on the flight in an easterly direction and   
   almost twelve hours in a westerly direction.   
       
   The route Honolulu - Boston is 8200 kilometers long and is therefore almost   
   200 kilometers longer than Honolulu - New York JFK, which is currently the   
   longest domestic route in the United States. It is also operated by Hawaiian.   
       
   Worldwide, Paris CDG - Réunion (9400 km) remains the longest inland shipping   
   service.
