Do You Like To Fly? (page 4)

I do like international flights. I do hate constantly changing planes to get to the international flights.

I enjoy the takeoff, the acceleration in a jet gives me quite a thrill. I can only imagine what it would be like in a fast plane, like a fighter jet. MMMM...G-forces....

I love flying for no other reason than it covers the miles quickly. I'd much rather take a one hour flight than a six hour drive.

I cottoned on to the idea of asking if I could be upgraded. Most airlines will do this for free, if there's space. The alternative of several hours squashed is no fun. I think my worst flight was a transatlantic overnighter, with turbulance, soft snores, bedarkened cabin, and "The Ring" playing on the screen in the headrest in front. Gawd it made me jump!!!

did u hear about the blonde girl who moved herself from coach to 1st class

the stewardess told her she was in the wrong section and to move back to her seat...she said im young im blonde im pretty and im going to sit in first class to new york

the head steward then came and spoke to her and she said the same thing

so the captain hearing about it said ...i'll handle it...he went to the girl, whispered in her ear, and she immediately got up and went back to her seat

what did u say asked the rest of the crew

i told her said the captain that first class isnt going to new york

I love flying. My fav fav part is lift off & the climb up to cruising altitude. It's a lot of fun and have had many many joyous flights.

No, I don't like flying.... Particularly overnight transatlantic flights.... Long, uncomfortable, can't sleep, dead tired when I land in Europe --- over there it's morning, the day is starting, for me it's 2 am and I have been up 24 hours and haven't slept yet.... and I am not yet at my final destination, change plane, or take a bus, then another hour or more car drive.... Awful, too old for all this !

Oh gawd, why am I doing it again ???

Love flying!! I'm so silly about it that I live under the local flightpath near the runway and my main criteria for what flight to get is to go on an airline or aircraft I havn't been on before... although OneWorld FF membership has curtailed my ways a bit...

Off the top of my head I've flown with: American, British, Aer Lingus, Ansett, Air North, Malaysian, Piedmont, Qantas, Garuda, Skywest, Thai Orient, Merpati (Indo), Cathay Pacific, Air NZ and flown on various models of 707, 717, 727, 737, 747, 767, 777; A300, A330, A320, Embraer RJ and Brasilia, F27, F28, F50, Bae 146, DC-9, DC-10, L1011 plus various light aircraft and a 'Mash chopper'. I flew 100,000 miles Sept 2001 -Sep 2003 but haven't flown since! Planning an RTW flight next year on FF points!!

Scariest was on a Garuda A330 which changed sound mid-flight and was withdrawn from service on landing... My worst airport - Delhi for general awfulness. Favorite coach class - American for the space. Favorite to fly on - 767 or DC-10, again for space. Best lounge I've been in - Delta in Frankfurt for the range of liquor and the quiet area with big leather recliners with personal headphone sets. BA do good lounges too. Worst toilet experience - BA London-Delhi - they were doing it on the floor!!!

What would I do if I won Lotto? Buy a small airline! My 10 year prediction? Airbus and Embraer will dominate leaving Boeing either kaput or as a much smaller player with just the 777 and 787.
