If an airplane is going 600 miles per hour against the spin of the earth which is 2400 mph approximately and the air plane is 30k miles up in the air? How is a flight going some where against the spin then back is the same time?

And how does the spin of the earth affect an airplane 30k miles up in super thing air? What is transferring the movement from the ground to the super thing air 30k miles up?

No. You're seeing capitalism. Fuel savings is to be had with it.

I also know some flights can see hours of difference.

The worst is of course head winds while flying with the spin.

That makes sense, that flying into a headwind would use more fuel. 1000 mph has got to use a lot more. Probably more fuel efficient to go the long way all the way around than try to fight that.

Your trolling is funny.

It was meant to be. I'm glad we could at least get a laugh while we disagree. No worries.
