In the past, I have used SOME of them for vacations and the like.

Rich Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Someone like Adam maybe? I haven't flown anywhere in almost 30 years, but for those who do, that's some helpful info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I fly every week, have been for the past 23 years and starting to hate it. But as they keep telling me "I'm Lucky To Have A Job". I just want to hit something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70'sChevyGirl Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I have to fly out for work once in awhile to check on my crew but other than that I fly only once or twice a year. I love flying especially the take off!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crawfish Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 I have to fly out for work once in awhile to check on my crew but other than that I fly only once or twice a year. I love flying especially the take off!! Vette Girl I guess I liked it a lot better before 911, although long flights have always been a drudge. Since it is just part of my job, I don't think about it a lot. When I fly to work, I go through Johanasburg, South Africa via Delta. The flight is a total of 18 hours. There is a 2 hour stop in Senegol for fuel, but we do not deplane. I have flown on 16 hours flights from LA to Hong Kong and Singapore with no stop at all. Singapore Airlines makes the Singapore flight slightly more comfortable, but none of these flights is a lot of fun....especially in Coach. Now, I will fly home on 4 June. Then I can play with my grandsons and my cars; now that will be fun! BTW Vettegirl, I have always wanted a 73 Vette (the year I graduated high school) I hope to add one to the garage in the next few years.
