Is a 6 hour flight too long?

Six hours? Is that a long flight? Well, yeah, it kind of is. I mean, it’s definitely not a quick hop across a couple of states. It’s officially “long-haul,” which sounds kinda dramatic, doesn’t it? I remember this one flight I took to California – felt like it lasted FOREVER. It was about six hours, actually. My legs were so stiff by the time we landed! I swear, I walked around like a newborn giraffe for a good ten minutes.

So, yeah, six hours is a decent chunk of time to be stuck in a metal tube hurtling through the air. Hydration is key – bring a big water bottle or ask the flight attendant to keep topping you up. And getting up to walk around is important too, if they let you. You know, to avoid that whole giraffe-leg thing I mentioned. Although, one time I got up to walk around and we hit some crazy turbulence… I practically flew back into my seat! So, honestly? Even when the seatbelt sign is off, keep it fastened just in case. You never know, right? Better safe than sorry. Seriously.
