PLANE EXPERIENCE TRAVELERS: What can I expect on a 5 hour flight?
Thursday Aug 20: Washington Dc for a day. Friday Aug 21: Washington Airport to Bahamas. -Connecting flights Saturday Aug 22: In bahamas Sunday Aug 23: In bahamas Monday Mug 24: In bahamas morning, head to airport to go back to washington -Connecting Flights Pick up truck from parking lot area and head back to Maryland. What can I expect to happen on my 5 hour flight? I only had the long international flight where i had personal tvs, and I really doubt that they would put them in a 5 hour flight. Because the flight i had with the personal tvs, was going to england which is like a 12 hour flight. Actuallly not BWI, which is my normal airport to flew through, but since i'm staying a day in washington dc, i'm just going to park at washington regan airport.

it sucks... bring a book or a gameboy or something because its to short for the in flight movie (maybe you will get lucky) but just beverages and you sitting is what you can expect. or you will have to pay for your personal tv...

JetBlue has personal televisions, and some other airlines might show movies or sitcoms. Just ask your airline. These days, they probably won't offer free meals, or they might just offer a snack. Pick something up in the airport after you get through security. Buy water there too. Again, ask the airline. Other than that, bring a book/magazine, hand-held and your iPod. Try and sleep on the plane, and keep hydrated. Make sure you pack a light sweater in case they run out of blankets. If you tend to get motion sickness, a dramamine always works, but it will tend to make you drowsy. Enjoy your trip!

I ALWAYS pack food. If it will be through a meal time I get take out food to bring. I also have a small case with granola bars and such that I carry every flight, just in case. And I never get onto a plane without a full bottle of water and another drink, a book to read, a notebook and pen/pencil, my cell phone (which plays several games) and charger, my medications and on long flights some other things to keep me occupied. The airline is supposed to get you where you are going. You have to entertain yourself and these days assume you might need food and water also.

You top half was sort of confusing, you should've listed times not dates. Anyway, I'm used to flying back and forth from boston to seattle, 6-7hr flights. It should be pretty good, five hours isn't that bad. Depending on the plain you have you'll either have a tv with a choice of movies for you to pick out and watch or tvs that play movies that you don't get to choose. Either way, there will be a tv and movies. You could bring your MP3 player, that will make the flight go a lot faster. I always fly with crayons and a coloring book (even though I'm 20 and it probably looks silly). I put on my ipod and color away. Makes the time fly by. Good Luck! I heard the Bahamas are lovely right now and all inclusive resorts and super cheap also. Theres a 5 star all inclusive resort going for 100 euros a night!

You are flying on BWI right? I fly a lot to Puerto Rico-and I live in DC/Maryland as well. It's about a 4 hour flight. I bring a book-there is no food, no movie-not all airlines have a movie. Only drinks and pretzels or cookies, no meals. Bring a book or a laptop to play movies or something.
