I sometime have to go to business travel by plan. I don't like smell in the air, so that I often wear mask full time. I felt to be scare and uncomfortable when the plan went through the clouds.

I have been travelling by air a lot since the start of this year. The longest flight I got was from Istanbul to Bangkok. It took 9,5 hours. It was a little difficult to spend so much time on one place, but I was really enjoying my time watching movies, eating nice food and sleeping. 

My main recomendations for long flights are:

  • choose an air company carefully (if your flight takes more than 4 hours, be sure, you will be provided by comfortable seat, nice food and intertaining options like tv screen). Also always ask for the blanket just after you came into the plane.
  • I prefer to get two 5-6 hours flights instead of one 10 hours flight (it's too hard)
  • try to choose day flight instead of night one, because its much harder to take a nap at the plane. 

    I have fallen in love with air travels since the day 1!The best and the fastest way to explore the world)

I've traveled by air once. It was six months ago. I flew from Chisinau to Amsterdam. It was exсiting. When the plane took off I got dizzy. The whole flight I looked out the window and admired the fantastic view of clouds. The flight wasn`t long, it lasted about 2 hours.

I have never traveled by air in my life. The longest travel time I have ever taken is by car and it is 8 hours drive.

Have you travelled by air? What is the longest flight you have taken?

I have traveled by air twice in Tan Son Nhat International Airport. The longest flight I have taken is to Phu Bai Airport in Hue, and the second flight is to Phu Quoc, a beautiful island with many resorts and luxury hotels along a clear-water beach.

Actually, the first time I boarded on a plane was last year, I had a great and fun experience. When the aircraft started to leave the ground, I could feel a faint and awkward sensation on my whole body. The flight took approximately 1 hour long to arrive at my destiny.

I usually travel by air as it is fast and convenient way to travel. Despite the fact, that flights can transfer you in almost any place in a World, my longest flight was just three hours, from Hungary to the United Kingdom. I like airports, especially after check-in desk, when you can left you baggage and enjoy both duty-free and meal in restaurants. The parts with showing boarding card at the gate and the flight itself with its overhead lockers and seat belts are not my favourite parts of the air travel, but water makes it less stressful
