AA134 from Los Angeles to London, tracked live

AA134 distance and great-circle path

AA134 covers 8,760 km, or 5,443 miles. That makes it a long-haul flight, a widebody route with a full night's flying time. Of the 299 routes we track, it ranks 105 by distance.

This is a long east-west haul. 8,760 km separate Los Angeles from London, and the 8-hour clock change on arrival is the part passengers feel for days. It links United States with United Kingdom.

Our guide explains how the LAX-LHR route appears on a tracker map.

What to know about AA134

• Time change: you land 8 hours ahead of the time you left. That is enough to cause jet lag. Here is how pilots handle it.

What flying LAX to LHR takes

It is a long-haul sector, a widebody route with a full night's flying time. American Airlines needs a widebody twinjet: the sector needs long-range tanks and a cabin crew rest provision, which rules out most single-aisle types. In daylight the sun sits on the right (south-facing) side of the cabin for most of the crossing.

How we verified this

The origin and destination on this page are the ones we verified for callsign AAL134 through adsbdb, not a schedule copied from elsewhere. We have logged it airborne on 14 days between 2026-09-19 and 2026-10-02. Timings are observations, not an official operational status: always confirm with the airline before travelling.

This page was published from our own tracking record rather than a third-party schedule feed, so it grows as we see the flight again. The seven-day log below is the raw version of the same evidence.

Our database contains 8 observations of AA134 across 8 UTC dates in this window, most recently 2026-10-02. Those records contain 6 distinct transponder addresses. The most frequently resolved route was LAX-LHR (8 records).

The median recorded visibility was 1426 minutes. That is time inside receiver coverage, not airborne duration or an on-time-performance measurement.
