Up, Up and Away...



We headed to JFK this morning for our flight to Los Angeles.  It was a gray and rainy day, but that's OK, because we are getting out of town - on our favorite airline - Jet Blue.


"Wait, what airline are you traveling on?" you might ask.  "Jet Blue."


Taxiing out for takeoff we went by the distinctive tower where the controllers work, and between our aircraft and the tower was this Etihad Airlines Boeing 787 Dreamliner.  Man, that is a BIG airplane!


I should have timed the climb, but I am guessing that we were on top of the cloud deck within five minutes or so.  So good, after all the cloudy and rainy days we have had, to see blue sky and sunshine!

  3. That Etihad plane is actually one of their A380s -- even bigger than the B787 Dreamliner! Truly an amazing airplane.
