In honor of the world's longest nonstop flight, a quiz about travel.

Emirates, the airlines, announced it’s adding a flight between its hub in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and Panama City. Perhaps most notable is the sheer length of the flight: At 8,590 miles, and with an estimated travel time of 17 and a half hours, it will be the be longest nonstop flight in the world.

In its honor, Stephan Richter, editor-in-chief of the Globalist, joins us as quiz master. The topic? Travel, of course.
