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 (3300 km East) But there are direct flights from Sydney (Australia) to Johannesburg (South Africa) QF63 https://www.qantas.com/au/en/flight-deals/flights-from-sydney-to-johannesburg.html/syd/jnb/economy https://flightaware.com/live/flight/QFA63 https://www.flightera.net/en/flight/Qantas-Sydney-Johannesburg/QF63 https://www.flightstats.com/v2/flight-tracker/QF/63 https://planefinder.net/data/flight/QF63 https://www.planemapper.com/flights/QF63
