PHILADELPHIA to MONTEGO BAY
So this morning I decided to fly a route of the week for @AmericanVirtual, Philadelphia to Montego Bay, Jamaica. American uses their A321 and 767 (not anymore 767 😢) on this route so I decided to use the A321 because the 767 looks awful in the old American livery. My plan was to wake up at 6:30 AM, fly the plane to 10,000 feet and go back to sleep for 2 hours before starting my descent. I woke up, thought it looked a little dark to be 6:30, because that’s when the sunrise is, got a flight plan and flew the plane to 10,000 feet. I was about to go back to bed, when I realized it was 2:15 AM 🤦♂️. I never checked the clock. So then I woke up actually at 6:30 and my flight went as planned on the second try. I’m an idiot and flight time was 3 hours and 24 minutes.
Also, thanks a lot to @Jaylan_Brown for ATC at MKJS!
