Dubai to Houston with the poors. 16 hours.

Then had a 4 hour layover to get from Houston to New Orleans. Then an hour drive to Baton Rouge. Total 24 hours of traveling.

What's The Longest Flight You Ever Been On?


Albuquerque to Baton Rouge in 1997 after my GF dumped me for Tiger Todd via Phone while I was in a Dorm at University of Colorado. The drive from Boulder to Albuquerque the day before was also the longest drive ever.

Los Angeles to Fiji or New Zealand to Los Angeles. Not sure which one was longer.

Think they were around 12-14 hours.

When I lived in Dubai, the flights were pretty long going back to the States.

Flew to Maui a couple of years ago, that was a little over 8 hours.

eta: Right after 9/11 I had to take a train from New Orleans to get to DC. 26 hours. It was hell, until I discovered the bar car.

LAX to Sydney. And LAX to Auckland which is a little bit shorter.

The date line can make things interesting. We took off from Auckland on Christmas Eve. Two hours later it we crossed the date line and it was Dec. 23. And then 2 hours later we hit midnight in our location and it was Christmas Eve again. Christmas Eve lasted around 40 hours that year.

Tiger Todd owned Tiger bar and I think most of the bars that were in that location.

Atl to Honolulu felt like the longest because I had a 3yo and a 6yo with me

15 hours, Houston to Taipei. I've done the trans-Pacific flight ten times now. It makes a trans-Atlantic flight a breeze.

You can watch four movies and still not be halfway across the Pacific!
