"...old school plane crush..."


My idea of perfect airplane travel is an empty row and no fellow passengers speaking to me at all.

I had one of those MT row flights from Tokyo to SF.
Slept most of the way —— ! Those days are long gone.

Once. Reno to Chicago.

It was awesome.

I fly Phoenix AZ - Lihue HI often. This works for me:

Half hour before airborne 10 mg Diazepam.
Business class is better than first, Imo.
Foam ear plugs.
Bose over the ear noise canceling headphones.
Blindfold.
Large beach towel serving as a blanket draped over my head.
Seat belt fastened and visible.
Forty minutes after airborne 10 mg Ambien.

I was 1 of only 30 passengers on a huge (dc10 size) plane from Hong Kong to Chicago 10-11 years ago. I got to lay down and sleep for the entire flight. It was amazing

My perfect flight was coming back from my Korean mid-tour leave to Australia. I caught MAC flights all of the way back from Brisbane, to Hawaii, to Guam, to Okinawa. When I got to Okinawa, I booked myself in for a flight to Osan Airbase and was told that I would be able to catch a flight within an hour with only 10 other passengers.

It turned out to be a Lear jet contracted to 10 Air Force nurses back to Osan ... talk about feeling like a fox in a henhouse ...
