But, if no one went, I would have nothing to watch. So, I agree it's a problem.

For some measurements on things that I have personally flown:

- SFO to Hyderabad: SFO -> Dubai (16 hours), Dubai -> Hyderabad (4 hours)
- SFO to Singapore direct: 17 hours
- JFK to BKK (they don't have this one anymore): 16-17 hours, and the flight went \
around the world, meaning it flew east to BKK and the return flew east to JFK.

This is probably all slower now, because geopolitical situations can make it \
difficult to overfly some countries.

These trips are absolutely brutal, even if you fly in business. For a trip like that, \
it's pretty much a 2-week deal, so you can get your mind back after the jetlag. I \
think a lot of IETF people actually like planes and things, so it's not a giant pain. \
The issue is whether one can make the entire time productive. If someone from \
Australia flies to San Francisco, they can probably book a lot of meetings, even \
within their own company. Not so going the other way, so that's the issue. It's just \
a function of the density of Internet companies.

thanks,
Rob
