Original Note:
Flights often connect at hubs if direct routes would not get enough passengers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airline_hub https://science.howstuffworks.com/transport/flight/modern/airline3.htm https://airwaysmag.com/how-airlines-launch-new-routes/ e.g. Perth to Johannesburg (8340 km West) usually backtracks via Sydney (a bigger city 3300 km East) https://www.qantas.com/au/en/flight-deals/flights-from-perth-to-johannesburg.html/per/jnb/economy
