Travel Night and Day: Around the world the wrong way – SIN-LHR, originally uploaded by flightblogger.
Greetings from seat 75K on the upper deck of Singapore Airlines A380
9V-SKC! With the massive disruption about to befall Washington, DC
with the arrival of two feet of snow, my route back to the US has
changed considerably. More importantly, with 747-8F first flight as
little as four days away, I’m bound for Seattle! My routing takes me
to London first (as was part of my original itinerary) and then to San
Francisco aboard a United 777-200ER, followed by a final leg to
Seattle on a 757-200. Yes, I know that’s 12,000 miles of flying the
wrong way to the west coast from southeast Asia, but the disruption
caused by the weather in DC only allowed me to alter my UA flight as
my SQ leg was booked separately and there was no change
fee…etc…etc. Either way, I should be in Seattle by Saturday
evening. It’s going to be a long ride. Next stop London…in 15 hours
and 30 min.
