The story doesn't mention facilities for showering or cleaning-up after using the gym. But then, everyone on airplanes these days is so clean and smells so fresh what's a couple of sweaty, unwashed gym-rats? And fussing, tantrum-inclined crying, whining children? That makes a 21-hour non-stop flight an enjoyable and memorable experience that will be fondly remembered for life.Qantas has ditched the idea of installing sleeping pods on its planned non-stop flight from Sydney to London and is instead designing something for the entirely opposite end of the energy spectrum - a gym.

The airline is as confident as ever that it can turn the 21-hour flight into one that passengers enjoy. Feedback from those who have flown what is currently its longest flight, Perth to London, has been more positive than it had anticipated.

In order for regulators to be satisfied with the working conditions on the 21-hour flight, there has to be a plan in place for how a pilots time and tiredness are managed.
