As a road warrior, I am in airplanes at least 75k miles a year. When I smoked, I would plan my layovers in airports with smoking lounges (not many left) or allow enough of a layover time to be able to run outside to grab a smoke. Instead of taking a 5 hour direct flight, I would do a connection so I could smoke at 2.5 hours. I would sometimes plan for a long layover just to smoke, making me having to either fly out early to allow the layover or get somewhere late. I have even planned a layover in a city "out of the way" just because there was a smoking lounge in the airport. So for me now as a non-smoker, I am taking more direct flights, or when I do have a connection, I don't have to race outside or search for a smoking spot. This makes travel much more relaxing, allowing me to actually enjoy the I spend in airports. How crazy was I?????????
