4 hours and that was enough. I would have to be sedated to travel any longer.




Yeah, I don't mind flying at all and if I was in first class I could probably be comfortable enough to fly longer, but I would have to take something to put me out in order to fly for 6+ hrs.

It was only about 2 hours but I sat—squashed— between 2 mammoths on a flight from Chicago to Birmingham and it was the longest and most miserable flight of my life.

It's not, but in this situation we were in the air for longer than we were suppose to be. The vice president was about to fly out and they had to delay the flights that were arriving at a certain time. But normally it's just over 4.5 hrs.

No, dumb arse.

Baton Rouge to Houston, Houston to LAX, LAX to Fiji.

So, your longest flight would be from LAX to Fiji then.

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


Well, that was total travel time from leaving my house in Australia until I arrived at my parent's place in Baton Rouge.

3 hour drive to airport in Sydney + 9 hour flight to Japan = 12 hour layover in Japan + 16 hour flight to Dallas + 2.5 hour layover in Dallas + 1 hour flight to New Orleans + 1 hour or so to my folks place, give or take an hour.

Longest non-stop flight was either the Tokyo-Dallas run or LAX-Sydney run. They broke about even at around 15 hours.

I try to avoid taking a shite on a plane, but I guess a flight that long eventually you're going to take a shite on the plane.
