I have also decided to opt for the long/short method.
Plane A flies a 12hr flight, then comes back, does a short flight (8hrs or so) and then comes back. Then the whole cycle starts again. Plane B does the same but offset by one day.
Here is the next big question though. I am planning to fly from Europe to Australia and New Zealand. First of all, will political restrictions forbid me to fly let's say LHR-SIN-SYD? As a European airline I guess I might not be allowed to fly between SIN and SYD?
I also need to find a meaningful way to schedule that. It is about 26 hours one way, so the flight back will have to be a separate route (is that possible as a European carrier) and if I want this to go daily I need to juggle a few planes.
Lot's of planning involved
