I can get a round trip from Honolulu to Beijing for under 680 bucks, lol

on Japan Airlines, of all places. I'd actually love to just sit on Japan airlines for like 24 hours for 350 bucks. that's a great deal. maybe I should do that and just turn around and come back home.

the first flight is 36 hours, with layovers in Kona and Narita. lol. that's less than 10 dollars an hour to sit on Japan Airlines and hang out in cool airports. I really should consider this

i did go back to the US during CNY last year cuz I had already planned to and who knew what was gonna happen.

I remember I came back in early March, before you had to quarantine or anything coming into China, and my family & friends in the states kept telling me to stay in America where a pandemic will be much safer & better.

I was like idk my friends in China say its like quiet & normal so I'm gonna go.

man i do not regret that decision.

We had tickets to go to Changsha last March, and gave them up because "holy poo poo we would be like 4 train stops from the epicenter". Should have gotten on that plane and stayed there.

Did you have the same conversations with friends and family in your home country about OH MY GOD ARE YOU OKAY while knowing what was coming?

I knew the US was gonna be a shitstorm.

I was confident China would do a lot better, but I didn't anticipate the night-day difference.

Just visiting the in-laws, I average a few weeks a year. We were gonna start going more frequently/shorter trips with cheap direct flights from LA, but gently caress, that airline went bankrupt. Who knows if that route is coming back in my lifetime.

Yea I flew on that Hainan flight a lot. Direct flight was nice and short customs lines in Changsha.
