One the Way to Manila

I’m in the Northwest Airlines Business Class lounge at the Los Angeles
Airport waiting for the flight to Tokyo to board in about 10 minutes. The
flight is scheduled for 11 hours and 30 minutes. That’s a lot of
increasingly tired hours. The lounge is fairly full — it looks like a lot
of folks will be on the Tokyo flight. I’ve never made this connection as
the flight from LAX is about 90 minutes longer than from Seattle. But going
through LAX is about $700 cheaper, so that’s the way I have to go. After I
get to Tokyo’s Narita Airport, I’ll have a three-hour layover before
starting the four-hour flight to Manila. It’ll be a long day / night.
