Nothing like seeing a runway full of fucking firetrucks and amblances waiting for you at night.

F*ck I hate flying but travel so much for business it's ridiculous. I'm above 100K miles for the year and still have one South America to China trip to go... The shitties flying is always across the caribean flying into or out of LatAm. Always mad turbulence in this belt.

I will say that United is the best NA Airline in my opinion. Especially their intercontinetal 777 service. Air Canada is not bad as well... Their T.O to Lima service in refurbished 767's with the new interior (LED lights etc.) is nice. Too bad their FAs are grosse.

And the one time I thought I was actually going to die was YVR to Varadero in 07'. Just after takeoff the plane went through the WORST turbulence I have ever felt. Not just up dowm but sideways as well... scary shit. vodka is good to put you at ease...
