How long does a letter take from London to Sydney?
Flight time: 21h 07m · Distance: 10,560 miles · With Premium: 10h 33m
On PreviewPal, a letter from London, United Kingdom to Sydney, Australia flies the real 10,560-mile great-circle distance at 500 mph, so it lands in 21h 07m. Your penpal in Sydney can peek at every word the moment you seal it. They just can't reply until it lands.
The trip home takes the same 21h 07m: Sydney to London is the same distance both ways.
