Ok Lets be square about this. I will tell anyone I am going to Australia for three weeks and Fiji for six nights on the return. More than they want to hear about, nodoubt.

But the hour draws neigh and I am not an experienced LD air traveller, not even an short distance air traveller. so here are my thoughts on surviving a International hemispherical trip.

All comments welcome.

Leave Colorado Springs @ 8:30 arrive Phoenix AZ then LAX at 5:00.

1030 depart LAX to Nadi Fiji, arrive at 5:30 aym

Leave Nadi at 1000 for Brisbane.

Arrive BNE at 1000.

I am traveling light. Snorkeling gear is the bulk of the check in baggage.

Have been told:

Bring water.

Drugs for sleep eye light blockers Funky eye shades ear plugs nose antibotics neck U inflatable pillows (bot one)

Have heard a bunch of different ways of dealing with jet lag which may be substantial on this trip.

Any one have some suggestions or comments

Hell its coming up fast this Tuesday. AGGGGGGGGGH

OH YES can some one tell me if I can bring knives in the checked baggage - I have some leatherman tools and a dive knife I would like to bring.

My advice? Go to your doctor and tell them what you'll be doing, and have them prescribe the GOOD stuff. Heavy drugs... the heavier the better. The more zonked out you can get the better off you'll be. Horse tranquilizers, quaaludes, hell, freakin' SMACK if he'll give it to you. Get the heaviest drugs you can get, if you can be knocked out cold so much the better. Of course, you'll miss some of the joys of flying, like the baby that screams non-stop during the entire flight, the morbidly obese person to your side pouring over the armrest into your seat, the guy in front of you leaning back ALL the way into your freakin' LAP, the so-called "food" that will give you a truly miserable case of food poisoning.... the stressed out stewardess who's looking at everyone trying to figure out who she can flag as a potential "terrorist", the undercover security guy who's bored out of his mind and is just aching to taze someone... Oh yes. Air travel nowadays is SO much fun.

And, seriously, do NOT eat the food they give you. Unless you enjoy spending days puking your guts out. Last time I ate airline food I nearly didn't survive the experience. From here on, if I ever get on a plane again, I ain't even going to touch their WATER, let alone their so-called "food". Poison on a plate is more like it.

LOL, that's some good stuff right there (and true too, especially the advice about getting the heaviest drugs you can to survive the freakin' flight).
