This was the best option as I needed 5 seats, and this leaves a few hrs after tisha ba'av.
I can only hope that 15 hrs in Y, w/ my height and kids should be a teshuva cleansing process.
Enjoy your flight and make the best out of it!
 I would never be able to manage so many hours in Y, but when you need 5 tickets it's going to be a challenge to get J.

Yup, it is what it is. If I can get a paid upgrade for myself to biz, I'll do that.
That way, I won't get in the way of my wife as she's taking care of the children.

And your wife would be fine stuck in Y while you enjoy J?

You think I would truly be able to enjoy myself knowing how difficult it would be for her???
Please, I'm a human, not an animal! It'll weigh on my mind the entire flight.

Yea, between that, some whiskey, and the sleeping pills, I hope to be well-rested so I can help out when we land.
