Goodbye California
So Jill and I flew out on Tuesday from LAX and went directly to Sydney. Our flight was a little over an hour delayed so we ended up taking off about 1:20AM and arrived around 8:30AM on Thursday Sydney time. Jill was upgraded to premium economy but I wasn't so we regretfully declined so we could sit together in Economy. BAD IDEA! After about two hours we were both wishing we had bigger seats, even if they weren't next to each other. As soon as we were able to use our TVs in the headrests, I found out that mine didn't even work. I asked one of the attendants to reset it and they did twice and it still didn't work. I was in the middle seat and next to a guy that felt he needed to take up the entire arm rest so I felt claustrophobic the entire time. We missed out on our Cadbury Hot Chocolate, both of our snacks in between meals, and didn't receive the sleep masks while everybody else had one. I got fed up about 2 1/2 hours into the flight and took a sleeping pill and didn't see Jill for another 5 hours. So much for sitting next to one another! Anyways, we learned our lesson and will never decline a upgrade again! On a brighter note, here are some pics of us on our way :)
