replying to @12bLAxx @12bLAxx I don't think I'll ever be able to pay for it with my own money. I was lucky enough to fly on the company dime. #travelskills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis #travelskills your coverage of new United flight to Amsterdam makes me want to go there! On my bucket list #talkintravel #Secretsanfrancisco

I believe that was longer than getting to Taipei through Narita. The memories make me want to book another trip #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united TIP So you don’t get jetlagged, start early on local time. Eat/sleep when people are doing those things in your destination. And bring earplugs and a mask so you’re not disturbed on the plane. #TravelSkills

A3: I’ve taken loads of long flights and enjoyed them all! LA-Melbourne, EWR-HKG, New York - Taipei, etc. #travelskills


replying to @united @united A3 My longest non-stop flight was SFO to Singapore. About 17 hours! Not bad in business class. #TravelSkills


A3. I don't keep track but Perhaps Tanzania to Kyrgyzstan, just because of all the layovers (PS, I thought the flying egale was a fitting photo :) #TravelSkills

A3: When traveling to Borneo, one of our editors had to fly for 24 hours. Here's what it was like: https://t.co/U8LRHcyo9C #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united A3 Some folks swear that cutting out all in-flight food and drink (except copious water) helps ward off jetlag. Right, @godsavethepoint? #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis Q3: Including connections? My longest flight was probably to Korea via Air China (LAX>PEK>ICN). Or possibly LAX>LGA>ARN. Both sucked. Longest non-stop was just a few weeks ago, LAX>ICN. #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united For me it is going to be ORD to Auckland this November #TravelSkills

A3: Doha to Houston on a @qatarairways 777-200LR a few years ago. Didn't have the QSuite back then, but it was still very comfy and great service. Had @adventuregirl as a seatmate! 😊 #TravelSkills

@travelskills @united My longest flight was a codeshare United/Swiss from Zurich to Johannesburg back in the summer of 2017. Was a great flight though as I had the whole row to myself.

LAX-SYD (3X) on @United. That's 14+ hours over only open ocean. Great experience though! #travelskills https://t.co/afDPbmIcbP

replying to @united @united you should re-name long haul flying to something more cheery or fun sounding. #TravelSkills

replying to @CPercySearle @CPercySearle Hello from Toronto! Ottawa is a great city #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united Or procida as well! Italy has so many magical places #TravelSkills

A2. No plans this summer. But I want to take my 12 year old son to Paris or London, my mother on the orient express, my sister and nieces to Catalina (California). #TravelSkills

A3 SFO - Melbourne, Australia. I was 14 and too polite to ask my sleeping seatmate to get up so I could use the lavatory. It felt like forever. #TravelSkills
