>>13383836Flight from Santiago and Sydney does around the pacific ocean. Your idiotic schizo theory would argue it's quicker going north, across the whole of the Americas, across the antarctic pole, and down the side of East asia to get there in a straight line. Instead, profit maximising companies and airlines choose to do, what to your silly model, looks like a gigantic arc across the pacific ocean, drastically increasing their costs in total fuel consumption needed for the route. Despite this, they don't experience any severe increase in flight time, holding the same time needed to cover the same distance between two points in the 'northern hemisphere' (Imagine my shock, its magic!!!).
