Reply to comment by Mumbles76 in Does anyone know why we don't have an established direct flight to Tokyo, Japan (Narita)? Specifically over the North Pole? by [deleted]

Direct all day. It wasn't quite as long, but having done Boston to Hawaii and back, I'd pick the direct every time. Flying there with a 3 hour layover in LAX was somehow worse than flying back to Boston in a middle seat for 10 hours.

Different strokes, different folks. I regularly fly to Asia and i'll take the shitty stopover every time. And here's the kicker, i'm a huge aviation enthusiast. Love flying to my core. Not claustrophobic either. Just hate sitting in those shitty seats for that long.
