Long-haul flight
Hey everyone,
I am finally doing it. I am planning an upcoming flight from Amsterdam to Tokyo which is going to be about 12 to 13 hours in the air.
I really don't like turbulence, and I know long-haul flights over the jet stream can get a little bumpy. I was actually looking at the 2-seat pairs in the very back row because I'm traveling as a pair and wanted the privacy, but I read that the tail of the plane sways the most during bumps.
I’m trying to decide if I should just stay over the wings where it’s smoother, or brave the back of the plane.
Honestly, I’m just looking for a bit of encouragement from people who have conquered long-haul flights like this. If you have any tips for surviving a 12-hour flight when you're a nervous flyer, please let me know!
Thank you all for being such an amazing, supportive community.
