Which side of plane to sit on to Sydney?
left
Many readers have asked me where to sit when flying into Sydney. My advice is to sit on the left side of the plane (i.e. row ‘A’) if you’re flying into or out of Sydney. Planes flying into Sydney often approach from the north – you’ll get an amazing panorama of the harbour and the city before touch-down.
Has a plane flown under the Sydney Harbour bridge?
During a 1943 tour of Sydney, Lancaster ED930 (A66-1) “Q” for Queenie VI, piloted by Flt. Peter Isaacson, “beat up” the city of Sydney and flew under the Sydney Harbour Bridge, on 22 October 1943 to raise funds for the War Loan. The media claimed “He did it for the £iberty £oan!”
Where is the best place to view the Sydney Opera House?

Do any flights go over Antarctica?
Few airlines fly between cities having a great circle route over Antarctica. Hypothetically, flights between South Africa and New Zealand, or between Perth, Australia, and certain destinations in South America (including Buenos Aires and São Paulo), would overfly Antarctica, but no airline has scheduled such flights.
