Long-Haul Flying
TravelSkills

A4 In Business Class, of course. In Economy it is now my principle never ever to recline; it’s just too cramped. #TravelSkills https://t.co/Ki6ATHcMrm

replying to @AndreaFeczko @AndreaFeczko So much to dig into in Morocco. Definitely visit Chefchaouen. #TravelSkills

RT @travelskills: Q5 Favorite plane for long-haul flying? #TravelSkills https://t.co/dvELRV3G40

replying to @united @united A5 Any wide-body plane that has a lie-flat seat with my name on it! #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united A5 The Boeing 787 Dreamliner. I was at first skeptical of its anti-jetlag properties, but they’re real! Better pressure and humidity help a lot. #TravelSkills


A1 I get so restless on long haul flights & can never fall sleep. So I’m gonna go with hate ‘em. 😫👎 #TravelSkills https://t.co/uvp5ABCr6u

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis Airbus A350. I was skeptical, but after my first long-haul on it, I'm sold. The extra air moisture is critical, and the bigger windows are a treat. #TravelSkills

More fun going over because of the excitement for the trip #travelskills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet @united A4 @united could be the hero here by increasing pitch instead of making customers deal with the effects of a ridiculously tight seat space. How about it? Imagine the great press! And the ecstatic customers! #TravelSkills

I think it was 17 hours. #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united TIP I love United’s recently retrofitted 767s cuz they are almost all Polaris business class. 46 lie-flat seats #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united TIP Not all planes are created equal so look before you book. I prefer widebodies like 777-300s, A350s, 787s, A380s, and some 747s. #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A1. Love them. You can relax and not rush on meals or sleep when you travel long distances. I feel for the FAs working the East coast to Western Europe flights where it is hard to find balance between rushing the service and help maximize sleep. #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A5: Whatever my Korean Air plane (LAX>ICN) was a few weeks ago. I've never been so comfortable on a plane since the mid-90s. #TravelSkills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet Absolutely because on a long haul I will only fly Business Class. :) #TravelSkills #LayFlatBaby

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis A5. @united Dreamliner - quiet, comfortable and the tricky shades on the windows that keep you ftom knowing (feeling) what time it is #TravelSkills


replying to @travelskills @travelskills Victoria Falls-JNB-JFK, then on to SFO. 40 hours total travel time, including 24 hours butt-in-seat time. All in coach, so seemed extra long. #TravelSkills

Always check. #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A5: The 747-400 was the best. Spacious cabin, good air quality, a coach cabin actually designed for 10 seats across. A350 I like for its quiet cabin. B777-300 best if you’re in Business Class. #TravelSkills

A3 14 hours from Los Angeles to Auckland, New Zealand. ✈️ #TravelSkills https://t.co/AxI1dwFOZh

A4. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks, passengers are allowed to recline their seats, even during the meal service - in the US. Sure, it's important to recline slowly or warn people so they can move their laptop before it gets crushed. FYI: I rarely recline. #TravelSkills

RT @united: TIP After Capri, visit Ischia, a small island off the Naples coast for less tourists. #TravelSkills https://t.co/hz4XedHKWq

replying to @travelskills @travelskills @united A4 I could live happily with wider pitch + recline on long hauls and no recline on short hauls. #TravelSkills #keepthepeace #loveyourcustomers

You can find @united’s Polaris lounges in five U.S. airports (so far): Chicago (ORD), Newark/NYC (EWR), Houston (IAH), Los Angeles (LAX), and San Francisco (SFO): https://t.co/5U2cBMcLdc #TravelSkills

A5 A plane that has movies and comfortable seats. Oh, and is safe. I'm a simple girl #TravelSkills

replying to @larrykleung @larrykleung @wtcgroup @travelskills yep. You are right. Sometimes the curmudgeon in me takes over and I miss out! #TravelSkills

Business class makes it a vacation for sure! #TravelSkills

A5 I never recline (because I never sleep), but I don’t mind when people do. It’s shorter flights (on smaller planes) when reclining becomes obnoxious! #TravelSkills https://t.co/h3oxFiYLS7
