I'll give you the secret to surviving the flight in a PM [/B]
Thanks, that was a pretty amazing lowdown. Definitely gives us a major guide for planning the trip; thank you very much.

As for the big trip - it is better to wait and have a little more experience under our belt [and know more what we're looking for]. Wisely left off for now.

But I have to ask, what is the secret to lasting through a LONG flight like that. Having flown to and from Pakistan a number of times now - I really have to ask for that PM.

I've seen the sun rise as the plane lifts off in Lahore - with refueling stops, then transfer - and seen it set 20 hours later as I finally landed in Chicago. I understand long plane rides - but now long for this secret

Thanks

Mark
