I am so tired of flying, particularly the connections. Hate the lay overs, even if its under an hour. Prefer direct flights..

I wonder how people do the MRs, doing 10-13 segments in a day or two..I am amazed!
My longest was TPA-MEM-LAX-DTW-PVD-MSP-LAX-DTW-TPA-IND-PHL totally UGed to F except the CRJ segment in about 48 hrs., followed ten days later by PHL-DTW-SEA-PDX-SEA-DTW-PHL-DTW-TPA in about 35 hrs. with only 4 segments in F. The only thing that was difficult was the lack of sleep. On my longest layover I kept nodding off in the CRC despite drinking lots of coffee.
