New Orleans to Sydney:
Layover in Lax - total flight takes about 24 hours. It’s about 14-16 hours from lax to Sydney- it’s unbearable

16 hours from LAX to Taiwan was the longest flight



hmm. I just did Chicago to Beijing and it was 14 hours. You would think that would be longer than LAX to Taiwan.

I just mapped it and turns out it was a bit over 13. For some reason I had it in my head that it was 16. I’ll edit.

I do know that the total travel time was about 33-34 hours though. Man that was a long trip.

How's that jetlag? Worst jetlag I ever had was flying to Seoul. Lasted a week.


Never suffered going to Asia. Totally time flip works for me.

Going to Spain messed me up the worst.

10.1/with for me. That’s a long time in one seat.

Talked to a bomber guy who had a 34 hour mission.

That’s a lot of speed and tanker gas
