Longest total (civilian) trip: Columbia, SC to Sydney.
Longest total (military) trip: Fort Bliss, TX to Amman, Jordan. Almost 36 hours of travel on that bad boy.

Longest individual flight: Washington-Dulles to Kuwait City.

NOLA to ATL 2 H + ATL to LAX 6 H + LAX to Seoul 14 H + Seoul to Kunming China 6 H

Plus 2 H layover in ATL and LAX and 6 H layover in Seoul... add all that up and it equals....too damn long.

17+ hours from DFW to Sydney for one flight.

32+ hours from Sydney to Baton Rouge (SYD-BRI-LAX-MSY), door to door.

Premium economy.

How old are you? It amazes me that there are adults who have never flown before. I think my mom was like 45 the first time that she flew anywhere. My longest flight was 10.5 hours from Rome to Atlanta.

31 years old

Had to fly from Amman to Arifjan several times on a C-130. That shite was bad enough. Can't imagine that long of a flight on that loud arse plane.

13 hours. JFK to Qatar. Super comfortable and went by very quickly, Qatar airways is awesome. Their coach seats are like business class on domestic flights.


Total trip was 3+13+6.5 from Nola to Bangkok. Same route back.

Longest travel time I ever had to do was about 44.5 hours doorstep to doorstep - Sydney to Baton Rouge via Tokyo and Dallas. About 26.5 hours of that was in-flight. I did that twice. I've done the New Orleans-Los Angeles-Sydney route a half dozen round trips, with Denver thrown in the middle a couple of times.




Damn man, you must have some insane in air hours.
