EK F JFK-MXP MXP-TLV LY Y :'(
LX J TLV-ZRH LX J LX-JFK

For another 10K, you may as well fly EK JFK-DXB-AMM all in F and then a 22 min flight on RJ.

I never got that whole "flying with dw" thing. Is mine such a saint or everyone else's evil? It's traveling in luxury. It doesn't get much better then that. Why do so many wife's have an issue with that..

I've traveled to Iran and Iraq, 0 problems. Though I would not recommend anyone trying this on their own and I won't take my DW either

You would say a full trip to Iran/Iraq is comparable to a stopover in AMM/AUH/DXB/DOH?

Of course not.

But most DW's would shoot their husbands if their husbands took them through Jordan.

Don't believe me, open a new thread about the subject and put up a poll.

Precisely.

There's a moat of epic proportions between Abu Dhabi and Iran.

About as similar as apples and hand grenades.

I never got that whole "flying with dw" thing. Is mine such a saint or everyone else's evil? It's traveling in luxury. It doesn't get much better then that. Why do so many wife's have an issue with that..

+1, I ask myself this often.

A330-300 as per http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Swiss_Airlines/Swiss_Airlines_A330.php

Seat guru isn't reliable, what does swiss.com show for the aircraft on that day?
