Answer / sathish
Guys some think its 1800 longitude. There is no such longitude. Total longitude is 180 degree. The question States 180* instead some mistook its as 1800.
The answer would be losing one day. because. consider yourself travelling from Los Angeles to Sydney, Which is travelling from West to east from 180 degree Longitude. It is the longest travel time in air, it takes 10 hrs journey.
if you start the journey on 10th, 12 noon and you will reach Sydney by 11th mid night. you may gain a day, But You actually loose a day.

Answer / pratheeksha
Longitude is given as an angular measurement ranging from 0° at the Prime Meridian to +180° eastward and −180° westward.
when we move from west to east we gain time
1800/360=5
hence he will gain 5 days
