Flight time: 12 hours, 10 minutes
Well, I’m on the road—or, more accurately, in the air—en route from Minneapolis to Hong Kong. My timing was great; last weather report I heard included the “s word” again, along with warnings for St. Cloud that the expected many inches of white stuff was going to be the heavy, wet kind, and that folks should expect downed power lines.
Get me the heck out of Dodge.
Lemme tell you, twelve hours is a long time. Managed to doze a bit for the first few hours, then again for an hour later on. By 5:00 Hong Kong time, I felt wide awake and “in sync” (which I know will be a mere memory by the same time tomorrow). Added bonus: One of my favorite Details customers (who shall remain nameless, in case NWA is reading and takes issue) was one of the World Business Class attendants. Even though I was seated in coach, she popped down to deliver bags full of “goodies” a couple of times, and told my attendants to give me anything I wanted. Talk about star treatment; it’s the first time I deplaned with more stuff than I boarded with.
Gotta love those little dopp kits (everything you could ever need, right down to an extra pair of socks a some slippers).
Thanks You-Know-Who-You-Are (grin). Very much appreciated.
