I'd have thought around 13 hours.

Just over 13 1/2 hours is longest non-stop flight I've taken in economy class.

I do like the idea of non-stop to Manila but I'd like to hear some reviews before taking it.
I'm pretty sure a 15 hour non-stop flight can easily stretch to 16 or more hours in those darn seats.
Philippine Airlines have no agreement to fly over Russia so thats why these flights are taking so long
Their present routing is the long way over India up past Dubai and then on to London
Flying the China/Russian route should shave 2 hours off these flight times

So lets hope they can sort this out sooner rather than later..........
