because of the way the world rotates. if you are going with the rotation then its easy and shorter. if you go against the rotation then its like going against wind. So… it will take longer to get there.

Same Routing? Headwinds/Tailwinds.

headwinds going, and/or tailwinds coming back…headwinds slow the plane down…tailwinds push it along. Routing might also effect the flight times…
