Boeing777pilot: Can you please explain why some return flights are shorter than the originating flights? Heard something like moving with the wind and going in the West-East direction or so, i'm not really sure. Thanks |

Dapricha:It's due to the rotation of the Earth from West to East. So, a plane traveling in an easterly direction is "flying with" the Earth, and take a shorter time to get to their destination; while the greater headwinds encountered by planes flying east to west is responsible for those flights taking a little longer. |

CFCman: Yes, you are right. They mostly have 2 crews on board. I think Boeing777Pilot confirmed that on his thread. |
