Nice. Brought back memories of this past November. I flew Miami to Dallas to Seoul (GREAT airport with easy connection) to Bangkok. You’re spot on planning for jet lag. Doesn’t get worse than a 12 hour time zone change. I took 2 melatonin at 1 pm eastern (1 am Thailand), ate, 2 beers and a mild sleep aid. Slept 6 hours. Woke up, stretched, did the whole thing over again. Slept another 4 before landing in Seoul. Was still a bit delirious when i arrived, but that strategy led to my easiest adjustment ever. Returning in March 2023. Worth it!

we like to count the travel time from "pillow to pillow". When you are ready to leave, you always wake up around your normal time....but go thru the day till the first leg which is often late evening. You can't sleep during that time! too much excitement. Layovers typically don't have sleep built in either. So really! the pillow to pillow is quite realistic! So add all those hours up and those sleep moments become more valuable! Of course, we've never upgraded so try sleeping in tight quarters sitting up is difficult. Enjoy!

I flew Emirates to Australia from the UK to see my daughter - a long flight. Knowing it was a long flight I purposely booked it to follow straight after a night shift (a firefighter) so I'd sleep. However I got the shock of my life when I went to board the plane and found they had upgraded me to first class! Nearly died of shock! Arrived in Australia after the best journey of my life - even had a shower! Normal class of travel home but what an experience. Hey, Merry Christmas to you two and to both of your families. Have a wonderful time. 😊

We just returned from a 3 week Thai trip 2 weeks ago! I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the recovery from the return flight is worse than the arrival flight(s). We flew economy plus/comfort both ways to had extra space and legroom but not the opulence of business class. Although I think you made the right call in getting the upgrade. I agree it is worth the price you were able to get it for! Enjoy. Looking forward to seeing where you go.
