My brother and his family just left for a 10-day trip to Thailand. He was stationed there for 4 tours during the Vietnam war. His wife of over 50 years still has family there.
Thirty hours to fly there.
Indy to LA
LA to Taiwan
Taiwan to Bangkok
I would be bat crap crazy after that much time in the air.
He retired after 24 years USAF.

He's probably used to a lot of air travel.
Just like people would probably be go crazy with the driving trips that I take. Anymore a 10 hr. trip is like going around the block.

His grandson is USAF now. Travis AFB in California. Crew Chief on transports.
He jokes that when he goes to Iraq or other middle east spots they must wear sidearms,but they only get one magazine!
