- I have a fear of flying
- NOTA
Actually, I sit next to my wife on 10-hour flights, but I think she would like to sit with Jonathan Roumie too. Flying to my wife’s home country of the Philippines, which we try to do once a year, takes about 22 hours of flying each way. We break it up with stopovers, but the longest flight, Honolulu to Manila, is 10 hours.
My daughter wants to visit Japan after she graduates. I thought a 13-and-a-half-hour flight sounds crazy, but 22 hours is even more wild. I’ve only ever flown to Florida from Ohio, which was a 2-hour flight.
It’s 22 hours total, the longest flights being between Manila and Honolulu, 10 hours each way. Plus Philly-LA, about 6 hours, and LA-Honolulu, 6 hours, 22 hours one way total. However, Philippine Air Lines does have a nonstop New York-Manila flight, and I guess that must be about 22 hours one way. It would save several rounds of airport security, but I think that, as the saying goes, the cure would be worse than the disease.
