Going to San Francisco: The Scenic Route
I'll head over to San Francisco as part of my work. Unfortunately that trip collides with a private trip to Seoul. Refunds for my private trip would have been rather limited so I'll simply extend my flight eastwards to reach all the way to San Francisco.
To my first destination it will be more than 11.000 miles with a 13:50h flight followed by another 10:50h leg on Singapore Airlines after less than two hours in Seoul. I wonder what the time zones and crossing the dateline will do to my internal clock ;)
After a few - hopefully nice and productive - days in San Francisco I'll once more cross the dateline westwards and connect to Guam in Seoul. From Seoul on everything should be fine as I'm guaranteed Business Class for the remaining flights.
I'll be in Guam for some time, hop over to Saipan (Kai: yet another Hardrock Cafe over there, dude!) for a day and connect to the remote town of Majuro. Majuro is the capitol of the Marshall Islands.
On my way back I will be able to take the infamous Island Hopper and spend the better part of a day landing and starting on remote atolls before catching another Korean Air Boeing 777 (brand new Business Class) to Seoul.
Seoul is yet another destination on the trip. More on that later - when I read the introduction of my tourist guide. If everything goes as planned I'll touch ground in Hamburg on the 19th of November.
The booked flights look like this:
30,000+ miles in 18 days equals a whopping 114 kilometers per hour (km/h) during the whole time.
