Bombay to Atlanta, nonstop, on Delta clocks in at 17 hours and 55 minutes. Let’s just go ahead and round that up to 18 hours. Um, ouch. I can handle long flights, and often just pack myself into a window seat for 10 hours at a time, but I’m not sure I could handle that. 18 hours? Maybe in business class… enough time for a full workday plus a lot of sleep.

This is the problem with Delta long-haul flights out of Atlanta… they mostly have to go north to get places, which makes them an hour or two (depending) longer than the long-haul flights out of the NYC area.
