He he! I understand the travel thing. I've been in Calgary for two years now, and I'm dying to go somewhere. Hmmmm....*ponders next destination*

Going from Calgary to SE Asia is a very long trip. My typical routes have taken me from Calgary to LA (about a 2-2.5 hour flight), LA to Singapore/Hong Kong/Taipei/Tokyo (flight times on average are about 14 hours), and then one of those destinations to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia or Bangkok (flight times on average are about 7 hours). Typically the whole ordeal, including layovers, takes a little over 30 hours.

I'm a big guy, so sitting in economy is a royal PITA. So is getting stuck in the smoking section on a 14-hour trip to Tokyo (that was when they still HAD smoking sections!)

Definitely, however, worth the long trip.
