After a pleasant week in New York and Ithaca it was time to return and considering it was 8am Newark was a zoo, but being dropped off by a family member with global service has its perks . After fighting through hordes of gate lice I finally made it onboard the 737-800 with direct tv.

As soon as boarding was finished the purser came through to take meal orders and offer a PDB.

Nice sunrise after a long takeoff roll, we must of used 3/4ths of the runway.

As soon as we reached 10,000 ft the FA’s sprung into action and came through with hot towels and offered a drink.

French toast with turkey sausage, quite good but it was a little cold

As we began our descent into SFO chips and chocolates were passed out, but considering it was a 6 hour flight it would've been nicer to have a snack in the middle too.
