Can't imagine going on an 12+ hour flight on budget airlines. It is one thing to save cash, but to do this is along the line of self torture....

It doesn't have to be a budget airline to be torture ... try United from the Denver to Tokyo sometime.

LOL. Did that leg with the now defunct Northwest Airline. You won't find me disagreeing with you. The only thing that kept me sane during the flight was the service button and the mini bottles.

I have been doing the American Airlines flight from Tokyo to Dallas or Chicago for a while now. If you load up your iPad with a bunch of good movies/TV shows it is just fine, and about $300+ a ticket cheaper. Totally worth it.
