Nice!!! I remember my last flight always taking the windows so I can squeeze in by the wall and. It be asked to get up and Dow for someone's bathroom break.. I'd always board early and buckle so no one saw my struggle with the belt.

It could be because I travel so much, but, I contend that airplane travel is one of the greatest of the NSVs.  From the not having to turn sideways to walk down the aisle, not having the spillover to your seatmate, stuck in a middle seat?? no problem, not hitting every shoulder on the way to the bathroom, to using the bathroom in general.  It's a completely different experience from morbidly obese.

One of my most favorite NSVs was being able to cross my legs while seated in a coach class airplane seat. Booyah! 

I woke up in between a memory and a dream...

That has to be one of my old time favorites. I used to hate to fly.
