My body clock is almost getting back on US time, but with all the work that I’m still doing overseas I’m starting to ask myself - why bother?  Boy - traveling today has really become something else. It’s as if the airlines have adopted a policy that humans equal cargo and therefore should be treated as such. I have never felt so dehumanized in my life as of late. I have had some of the worst flying experiences of my life in just the last month alone. Flights have been oversold by up to 40 people, customer service has become a complete misnomer and I wish they’d turn the air filters back on during the darn flight so that I can breathe! So, having all of these recent experiences, it made me not look forward to taking the world’s longest commercial flight - 18 and a half hours! I’ve got to be completely honest when I say that I was dreading the thought of having to spend 18:30 hours on a single plane. So, at the time, I found myself with a bad attitude, a horrible frame of references and the longest flight ever waiting at the gate - this wasn’t going to turn out well. Well, I couldn’t have been any farther from the truth. I was so wrong that It’s sick. Ladies and gentlemen allow me to introduce to you Singapore Airlines. Without question - THE single best airline that I have ever taken in my life. Not only was the flight great - this flight was EPIC. Every last detail was perfect! They treated each customer like they were the most important thing in the world. It was amazing. I learned my lesson - I’m scarred, but smarter. Erik
