No doubt when we want to take a trip to some city far from ours or to another country or continent, Doing it by plane is the most comfortable way to do it.
Air travel can turn out to be a pleasant and unique experience, not only because you are about to arrive at one of your favorite destinations or the one you always imagined you would visit one day; However, we also have the other side of the coin, where they can become a nightmare.
There can be multiple factors that make a plane trip something terrible, such as security failures during the flight, attitude of airline staff or other passengers, problems with luggage, delays and duration of the flight.
On this point, There are people who can sit on the plane for up to 12 hours without problems, without having to make any type of stopover, but there are those who experience this situation as a truly titanic task.
On average, a flight from a country in North America to Europe lasts just that many hours. But there is a destination where it practically takes you a whole day of flying to get there.
