So i took off from LHR(London) to christchurch (new zealand) and it’s about 10,250 nm. The route i took was from norway to the Antarctic and then japan to Australia and finally reaching new Zealand. When i took off it showed me 21 hours ete. Im already 14 hours in flight with only 30% fuel (was 100 when i took off) i only managed to reach oslo. In 14 hours i just reached london to oslo which is just 2 hour flight. Not sure what to do. Please help.

Land at the nearest airport to your route.
You won’t make it with 30% left. So land at the nearest airport you can and refuel and continue on your way.
That’s what I would do if it’s not correcting itself after a while.
Did you try exiting the game and hopping back on to see if it fixed itself? If it didn’t then you most likely do need to land.
- Which aircraft are you using?
- Which altitude are you flying at?
- Which speed are you flying at? (IAS)
- What is your speed over ground?
- Do you use AP+?
Right now, I am inflight with an A350 from Sydney YSSY to London EGLL- kind of similar but some 1000nm less distance. 9000nm plus something distance and ~18hrs flight time. When I start with max. takeoff weight MTOW 280.000kg and tanks full, I can make it.
But right now are some strong winds all over the northern hemisphere from 60 to 110kt. On my route which goes more over China, Mongolia, Russia, I have strong headwinds. Maybe that’s what happened to you too?
Hi Lewis your a legend never forget that Iv been a fan since you first started next season start a fresh and keep your chin up dude

Nope mate i believe this is some sort of glitch in the game. I tried doing the same route again starting from Heathrow to Auckland and this time around it’s a different glitch. The total time to dest was around 20 hours after levelling and now Im almost near to Mongolia which is around half way to destination. But my ete to dest has been showing me 14 hours for the last two hours. Also when i keep it on autopilot plus it shows the total flight time of 1 hour and 3 minutes.
At this point I’m confused.. not sure what do i do.
