You, Ibiza, and the Not-So-Short Haul
So, you're itching for some sun-drenched Spanish shores, that Ibiza glow, and maybe even a spot of clubbing that would make your grandma clutch her pearls (respect the hustle, grandma). Fantastic choice! But between you and those beachside mojitos, there's a little hurdle: the flight.
How long does this transatlantic trek take? Buckle up, buttercup, because Denver to Ibiza is no hop, skip, and a flamenco clap. You're looking at anywhere from 10 to 14 hours depending on the airline, connections, and if the pilot decides to take a scenic detour over Bermuda (hey, stranger things have happened).
Tip: Reading in short bursts can keep focus high.
But wait, there's more! This isn't your standard snooze-fest across the country. We're talking international connections, which can be a delightful adventure...or an exercise in testing your patience with the in-flight entertainment system (because who watches that anymore, really?).
Tip: Don’t rush — enjoy the read.
Fear not, fellow traveler! Here's how to make the most of your airborne odyssey:
Tip: Read aloud to improve understanding.
Pack like a pro: Be strategic with your carry-on. Noise-cancelling headphones are a godsend, a good book is your BFF, and an inflatable neck pillow is your best friend's slightly embarrassing cousin (but hey, comfort is key).
Channel your inner contortionist: Because legroom on these long hauls is a precious commodity. Invest in some compression socks to avoid turning into a human pretzel, and loosen that belt a notch (because airplane food, amirite?).
Become a movie buff (or a podcast fiend): Download a bunch of movies, shows, or podcasts beforehand. Who knows, you might even discover your next binge-worthy obsession!
Basically, embrace the adventure! A little turbulence never hurt anyone (okay, maybe a slight exaggeration) and consider this pre-vacation relaxation. Ibiza will be waiting with open arms (and possibly glow sticks) when you land.
Tip: Patience makes reading smoother.
