In Flight Food and Games

I've had my share of flights but not too many overseas. Traveling by airplane has changed over the past year as budgets tighten and the news reports every coming day as the next market low where they pretend they don't know if it will ever recover. Airlines are now touting free baggage as competitors charge for inair food and extra bags checked.

You can imagine I was surprised when they served me chicken and rice (I asked the stewardess which food was the best and she quite loudly said the chicken after that everyone copied) . To top it all off they also came around with California wine which I had to try.

After getting fat the back of every seat was a screen that let you pick between Movies/TVShows/and Games.



The reason it says "Filme" is because I accidentally clicked the german language and couldn't get the menus back to english (i bashed every button only to have the stewardess come by because my light was blinking on and off for 5min with my button mashing) but I was on my way to Austria to learn German anyways -im just justifying not being able to figure it out made me mad for the 1st hr.

Flying to Vienna

I flew Swiss airlines which was (not really comfortable) but entertaining. I was smashed in the middle of the plane next to some new couple who were all lovey dovey then to my far right there was the sound of an old man hacking up a lung every10-15 min (I timed it one time--its a long flight I had a lotta time).

At the beginning of the flight I thought I had notice a family friend who was sitting diagonally behind me. I tried calling out her name quickly and kind of mumbled because I didnt want to look ridiculous bec. #1 we have an unusual name for her which is Guggi (not her real name) #2 I didnt want to yell in the ear of my neighbor who I hadn't yet met. Anyways she didnt respond so I let it go until the very end of the flight I yelled her name loud as I could as I got my bags and sure enough it was here the whole time. Pretty crazy though what are the chances same time flying to Vienna

Made it to Vienna w-limited internet

The only way to flz to Vienna is on Swiss airlines because of the food games and chocolate (they give you swiss chocolate if your a favorite). They spoiled me with a full dinner two snacks and free California Wine I cut myself off at one bottle but I could have had another chicken and rice. There were screens on the backs of the chairs that let you navigate through tv shows, movies, and video games. I will post the pictures and videos as soon as I get my computer online.
