Question for the pilots
So, one of the guys I work with is somewhat afraid to fly, well, not fly but crash. He is looking to buy his ticket to go home on vacation through Delta. The itinerary says it is 6,574mi from Kuwait to IAD. It says he would be flying on a 777-222, then it gives a link to 777-222 info which says the range is 5,600 mi. So his question... where did the last 1,000 miles come from? Do they just coast into washington?! haha
