I had no clue planes could just skip the equator like that, it feels kind of lonely for the middle of the earth.

In conclusion, while some flights in the Southern Hemisphere might cross the equator for strategic reasons, it's by no means a requirement for travel between two southern hemisphere countries. The decision on flight routes is based on the principles of navigation and efficiency, not on a rule to always cross the equator.

Maybe the equator prefers the silence, though I admit it makes your flight path feel like a long walk home without me.

The equator is just a line we drew on a map, yet somehow it still manages to make you feel abandoned by the physics of long-haul aviation.
