A380 from LONDON to SYDNEY ? possible ?

Hello all, :beer:
I just was wondering how the A380 from Lufthansa or even Qantas can make the flight from Frankfurt or Heathrow to Sydney.I see in :google:
and didn't found anything that make my clear. The max rang of the A380 is 8.300nmi but the route has over 9150nmi. If it is possible why? Do
they let some passengers in the airport to lose weight and get more range? If yes it is possible too to extend range with less weight?

Thank you for all who respond and read.
Regards:)

No passengers and no cargo would be a good start.

Change your pricing to "luxury" and go into to aircraft.cfg and change the fuel scalar to .5.

If it's stupid, but it works, it isn't stupid.
