Aktau to Brunei is three time zones off. I checked my compass regularly just because I get tired of watching movies so I watch the inflight progress screen.
On the forum, someone said that, and asked if that earth is flat why can you fly from south america to australia? The guys answer was that "they" change the clocks and something else, it was ridiculous

My Dad did an "around the world" flight too this past summer. IIRC it was Tulsa to Scotland, to Turkey, to China, back home, all flights headed east...

Maybe those around the world flights work like the movie Plesentville where when they get to the end of main street they are back at the start of mainstreet
