Whew, that was torture.
Here's what it takes to get to Thailand:
Depart STL 6:00am Arrive Chicago 7:00am
Depart Chicago 12:00pm to Tokyo Arrive 13 hours later
Depart Tokyo arrive Bangkok 7 hours later
We left on Sunday early am and didn't get out of airports until Monday at midnight, with time change. All in all it was about 24 hours of in-flight time including 4 airplane meals...yuck. I cant wait for the much talked about Thai food!!!
Exhausting....my back and legs were not enjoying the flights. I was super jealous of business class....they practically had beds.
