How long can you fly consecutively until you go crazy? (pg. 6)

I love a long flight. Even in economy most of the planes these days have TV's in the back of the seats with 8-bit computer games and a decent selection of shows and movies. I've done long flights (Melbourne - London non-stop = 23 hours) and at the end I usually want the flight to keep going for another 5-10 hours.
Hard to beat sitting back playing mini-golf or virtua bowling. |

Yeah :(
It paid great and they looked after me extremely well so I won't complain about the job, airlines however are a different story. |

I tend to get myself really exhausted before flying so the time goes by quickly.
Flying to Asia was never a problem as I tried to get on the local time zone before departing so the 14+ hours weren't so bad.
What I hate the most about travelling has to be transfers.
Once I took a 6 hours train to Frankfurt ( switched trains once or twice ), slept at the airport, flew out in the morning, transferred in Newark only to some stupid baby crying the whole flight which makes you want to stab the damn bastard kunt cause everything was fine until that feces monkey was born.
Try flying-travelling 4 consecutive days on trips like, Cleveland-Boston ( layover in Columbus ) party, bus to New York the morning after, party, fly out morning to Chicago ( layover in Detroit tripping balls ) party , fly out evening only to have all the flights cancelled due to inclement weather
:wtf: |

OMG ich kann lesen das! Aber muss ich auf Destche learnen besse. Ya I know I probably f'ed up those sentences. But I undestood what you said...that made me excited.
So Tubular, when I get drunk I feel like German comes natural and sometimes I can only think of German words instead of English words. Does that ever happen to you?
Fyi I have TWO flights that are 11 hours each. I'm not so worried about the duration as I am the fact that I MIGHT be put in the smoking section. Unless I'm go-go dancing and making $1,000 a night in New Orleans, I don't think I'll be able to handle this cig unless I morally degrade every smoker on the plane to the point that they want to kill themselves. I think if I can accomplish that then I'll feel smug enough to compensate for the sore throat I'll get from their cig smoke. Anyway, smoking on planes? WTF I thought that was outlawed years ago?? |

Sleeping through it sounds good. Alternative if not able:
If you have power, laptop and a headset. Plan ahead a couple of months if possible, save 3-4 GOOD movies for the trip and go movie-marathon.
No power? mp3-player with good batterycapacity and an interesting book. Preferably a noisecancelling headset, good plugs or a Koss industrial one. |

| Why wouldn't they have free beer? It's an international flight. You've already paid for it. |
