are the religious jews all davening all day??
when do you fit in meals? and with all the bruchas before and after.......
and do you ask people on the plane to get a group together to bentch????
The periods of time are those that the prayers must be said in
The actual prayer times are approximately:
Shacharit 30-45 minutes
Mincha and Maariv 10 minutes each
So there is plenty of time for other tings
Come to think of it never saw people getting a group together on a plane to bentch (grace after meals) but just came back this moring on LY028 and they definately had a minyan for all three prayers
