Well, I am blogging while I am flying again. As I grow older, I realised these timings are like the most reflective moments – especially when I am flying alone. There are WiFi available on flights usually but somehow I don’t use it. I only post it on my blog much later. Haha.

I’m realising the benefits of being an adult and having adult money. I’m on a flight from JFK airport to SFO airport. It is a 6.5 hrs flight and I booked Delta Airlines main cabin initially. Somehow I decided to just pay for the upgrade to Delta Premium Select less than 12 hrs before my flight departure time. There’s no seats available at Delta One (first class equivalent) so I went for the next available tier which is Delta Premium Select. There’s upgrade got me 2 free checkin luggage which anyway, I also needed to pay US$80 for it with main cabin. I was worried that I need to checkin my hand carry luggage which was what happened in my last year’s trip (JFK – SFO). Well, I was one of the last few passengers and nearly missed the flight. The main cabin seats are pretty decent for US domestic airlines but the Premium Select seats are much wider and comes with an inflight meal which was served in ceramic plates and glass cups. I spent US$478.38 for the upgrade which is a bit pricey. 

I am wearing my new Canada Goose expedition parka which I got it in New York City for the flight since it is heavier than my existing The North Face jacket. The coat has better backpack straps which makes it really comfortable to carry around. I can carry it like a backpack instead of lugging around on my arms. I really like its portability for sure. 

Couldn’t have done all these if I don’t have adult money for sure. I’m feeling fortunate that I have money to do and buy all these stuff and experiences. This is my first solo trip to NYC. NYC is really quite expensive so I am glad that I can afford to do 5 nights here.
