... and back again!
Hi
I've only ever flown short-haul within the EU before... Mallorca, Malaga, Klagenfurt... 10 flights in total (5 round trips). I've never been particularly comfortable on them, getting that claustrophobic feeling after a while and having the "I want to get off soon" feeling after a couple of hours.
80% of these flights have been on 737s and 3 of the flights have been pretty bumpy (one terribly so) which hasn't helped.
One of my friends in the States has invited me over next summer and I really want to go, but I'm a bit apprehensive about the flights. He's only in Philly, so I imagine I'd fly into NY.
I've been looking at flying with Silverjet due to the space and comfort they appear to offer as I think this would really help (being 6'2" and a bit tubby!)... Are they all they're cracked up to be?
Is the 767 going to deal with turbulence better than a 737 (as in stability)?
Any seasoned passengers care to share some tips on how to enjoy the flight?
Valium if all else fails?
Thanks in advance!
Josh
