It was amazing, its actually 15 hours HNL to GUM and the flight arrived late to GUM so we lost our UA flight to HKG. They put us in a hotel in GUM for a night and routed us GUM-MNL-HKG. So my island hopper technically finished in MNL. Watch out if you book connecting flights after the UA154. The atolls and islands just amazing, lots of islanders in and out and hand baggage inspection at each stop which adds to the stopover time. Any bag not recognized by a passenger goes out at each stop. And yes 2 mechanics/pilots on 7A and 7B. Photos are amazing. Well worth the time for anyone who loves aviation. Just great.
