Places You Want to Visit

[MTK]

Pretty much every major US city would be on my list. As far as traveling outside of the US, am I alone in not having too much interest? Only because of the travel time involved, mainly.

^ I understand Matty. But IMO when you walk off of the LONG plane flight and you are in, say, Kathmandu, it is worth it.

Yeah I understand. Don't get me wrong I'm not going to let a long plane ride stop me from traveling, it's probably something I'll do later in life though.

I agree when I hear of 12 hour flights my mind begins to race as to how the hell do you sit for 12 hours on a plane, it sounds like Chinese torture to me!

You pay extra for an economy plus seat and you show up sleepy. Sleep (-4 hours), watch a in flight movie and shows (-3 hours), read (-2 hours), listen to music and play psp/phone/ds games (-2 hour).....it's like going camping except you can't move too much.

economy plus is well worth the few dollars extra, I tried it one time, and since have done it every time I have to fly. 5" or whatever doesn't sound like much, but the difference between my knees hitting the seat in front and not makes the flight a ton better.

Abroad, I would like to go to Asia someday, not sure which part. Australia would be a nice to do, if I ever can. Moscow would be cool as well.

As I said in the other thread, in the US, I just like to drive, the destination is usually an afterthought.

I always pay an extra $40 for an economy plus seat...sometimes I play the hight card and go to the counter and ask for an exit row seat. Without economy plus I don't think I'd fly at all.

I actually prefer long flights, I hate having to drive an hour to the airport, get there an hour before the flight, get on the plane and then sit on the runway for another hour while some maintenance or whatever is being done last minute...all for an hour and a half flight.

If I'm going to have put all that effort into just getting on the plane I might as well have a nice, long flight I can enjoy. I don't want to do all that just to get right off the plane

No you are not alone . I guess if the middle east would ever become a stable area , maybe , just maybe I would go see the Great Pyramids of Egypt . I doubt I will ever leave the US .... so much to see and do here .
