THE LONGEST FLIGHT

Over the next few weeks I will begin to insert a series of travel postings, leading to our Pride of America cruise around the Hawaiian Islands to depart Honolulu on September 2.  Today, ultra-long plane flights, with first a re-look at two of mine.  Just click on any link to read the details.   I've been on two of these, in  2013 from San Francisco to Sydney  and  seven years ago from Sydney to San Francisco .   The SFO to Sydney took 14.5 hours and the reverse only 13. I called the 2013 world journey My Ultimate Global Adventure ( MUGA ), for I traveled first class on a Star Alliance around the world ticket.  Spent 51 days on the road.  Here is the complete itinerary: MY ULTIMATE GLOBAL ADVENTURE: Final Thoughts AROUND THE WORLD IN 51 DAYS MY ULTIMATE GLOBAL ADVENTURE, Day #51: San Franci... MUGA Day #50: Mendocino to San Francisco MUGA Day #49 : Architecture and Wines of Sea Ran... MUGA Day #48: Sonoma and Mendocino Wine Tasting MUGA Day #47: Napa and Sea Ranch Wine-Tasting MUGA
