The flight from Vienna to Newark was 9.5 hours and we were seating in the middle of a 2-3-2 plane setup. I was in the middle of the 3 section even. Yep. It didn't turn out too bad, though. The seats were actually pretty roomy and the inflight entertainment had such new movies that the time passed rather quickly and painlessly.
Throughout our air travels on this trip we watched a ton of movies. The listing is below:
The Big Short (very interesting film that we both watched and enjoyed),
Steve Jobs (Jackson finished that one, I got bored),
How to be Single (HILARIOUS! We both loved this one!),
Entourage (Jackson watched and called it lame),
Star Wars (the new one! Jackson watched this. Not me. I want to die without ever seeing a Star Wars film.)
Safe House (a CIA-based thriller that I really enjoyed and Jackson found an odd choice for me)
Concussion (SO GOOD!! Jackson refused to watch it for whatever reason.)
The Intern (really, really good film that made me hate Anne Hathaway a little less)
Yep. We watched a ton of movies! That is what happens when you're trapped in a tube in the sky! The best part about United and their affiliates is that movies are free so if they're not good (looking at you Steve Jobs) you can turn them off with no guilt!
I also recently got a United credit card to get some free flight points which made us get an upgrade on the short flight from Newark to Indianapolis. We just got Economy Plus (not first class!), but the extra leg room was nice even for this short girl! All of our flights went really smoothly and we were home right on time.
I was up early this morning (5 a.m.!) without an alarm because I am a little screwed up on time so we got around and went to Cracker Barrel for a yummy American breakfast. (Read: we had ZERO food in our house and were starving since we had not eaten since yesterday afternoon in Newark's airport!) It did not disappoint. The drinks were cold and icy with free refills and all. Amazing! ;)
Jackson is back to work this afternoon and I'm catching up on errands and laundry. It feels good to be home. For now. We leave again on the 8th for 5 days in NYC. Woot. :)
Reunited with this little fur-ball! |
We got Jackson's rental car and headed for home! We were able to unpack, start laundry, shower and go get MacKenzie before hitting a wall and needing to go to bed finally. A 21+ hour day did us in!
