Delta Flight to Hawaii

We flew from Lexington to Atlanta and we had about a 3 hour lay over in Atlanta.  So far so good.  We had a good time at the airport in Atlanta, there are some nice shops, and we had a nice breakfast sandwich from one of them.  I guess, after getting up early and already covering some miles, this was a nice area for a break.

We got on our next plane for the flight from Atlanta to Honolulu.  I think this flight was somewhere around 9 hours, but we made good time. 

The thought of a nearly 9 hour flight (actually 2 of them, one on the way there, and one on the way back) was kind of stressing me out.  That's a LOT of time in the air!

The flights ended up being pleasant.  Frankly, I would say that I enjoyed them.  I had a couple of books to read, and I watched some movies.

The movies ended up being very nice.  I think I read somewhere that Delta has about 300 to choose from, and that sounds about right.  On the way over I watched "Loving Vincent" which was a great, sweet film.  I really liked this one.  I then watched "Dunkirk" which seemed appropriate with our upcoming visit to Pearl harbor.  Lastly, I watched "The Time Traveler's Wife" which was a very cool sci-fi romance kind of movie.  I don't remember this one coming out at all...  but I really liked it too.

The flight crew was great on this one too.  They passed out eye covers, headphones, coffee, water, snacks, and even a couple of impressive flight meals.  I had a nice turkey sandwich early in the flight.  A little before the flight ended, they passed some delicious hot boxed flat bread pizza meals that were really appreciated.

Again, this ended up being an enjoyable flight!  Thanks Delta!
