It's almost time to start my journey. First up is 18,000km from here to Dublin, via Sydney and Dubai. It's 26 hours in the air, with the longest leg being 14 hours. I'm not sure if the stop in Sydney is a get up and walk, but I believe it's not... This isn't encouraging and changes the longest leg to 17hrs... That can't be right.
It's departure day today. A quick passenger load in Sydney, then a short transit in Dubai and by this time tomorrow I'll be arriving in Dublin, Ireland.
