Old-driver 5th Gear May 25, 2020 Share May 25, 2020 June is just around the corner and this is the 1st time in as long as I can remember that I HAVE NOT been on a plane this year. While I am not a prolific flyer like some in this forum, I usually would have flew at least 2 business trips and also had a holiday cancelled in Feb to due the uncertainly. Do I miss travelling? Miss the smell of the plane cabin? The thrill of getting out of immigration quickly? The lounge food? In a way.... Yes. Though travel is unlikely to resume soon and hope things get back to normalcy soon... ↡ Advertisement 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Supersonic May 25, 2020 Share May 25, 2020 Thought there are some flights resuming in the next few months? But guess mostly might be for business purpose than leisure travelling?! If countries still enforce the 14 days quarantine, even flight is resume also no one would travel. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1fast1 Supersonic May 25, 2020 Share May 25, 2020 I don't miss flying (or travel by anything other than a self-driven car, for that matter) because I hate it. Apart from the virus itself, the CB is a godsend. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesc Hypersonic May 26, 2020 Share May 26, 2020 (edited) I miss 2 half balls. People miss lounge food? I usually go for a BK meal and then go to lounge to drink coke and eat potato chips. Edited May 26, 2020 by Jamesc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watwheels Supersonic May 26, 2020 Share May 26, 2020 I think there will be some long term changes like no more serving food onboard airplanes. I think what puts off flying would be the 14 days of quarantine to your destination and another 14 days at home when you come home. Bummer. Basically what I have noticed is a lot of time is wasted and not as efficient as before the pandemic. Even simple thing like going for a haircut, I took my kid for a haircut while my wife bring the other for a follow up appointment nearby. It took us an hour from queue to finish. For checking in it's easy for one person. When you have a kid in tow you have to type in his/her particulars. Check out it's reverse I have to type in my particulars. Check into building one time each then check in again at the haircut shop. Geez. It's getting tiring. Then check out go thru the same thing. Is there an easier way if this is going to be long term?

Rickster 5th Gear May 26, 2020 Share May 26, 2020 Yes, I do miss the entire experience of travelling for work and leisure. Flying is just one of the part. I guess the only way where this can be possible like it was 5-6 months ago is when an effective cure or vaccine is found. That means, another 12-18 months more of wait time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weez911 Supersonic May 26, 2020 Share May 26, 2020 I hate flying but I miss visiting new countries badly. Every place is unique - food, sights, culture, people, etc. I especially miss the sensation of tasting new food for the first time, and seeing new sights I have never seen before. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long flights will be suffering big time. The stuffiness of the mask and heat of the suit on, no joke 😱 ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
