I can’t IMAGINE how long those flights must be from Malta!
Safe travels!
in a weird way (but not in all ways), the longer flights are easier to relax into.
Like Muck I always get daytime flights to Vegas and then nighttime flights home. It’s 13.5 hrs Sydney to LAX or SF, leaving at 9.30 am and I can generally look forward to it as an opportunity to do some work, watch some movies, read a book etc. On the long ones, you don’t have any option but to relax into the flight
It helps that international seats, even in coach, are generally larger and have more leg space than the smaller planes you do internal flights on. So it isn’t as uncomfortable. I would also dislike 4 hours on those tiny South West seats
Sydney to London is a different beast. Having a 12 and an 8 hour flight only broken by a 2 -3 hr stopover is really difficult and I generally pay for business class on those trips if they are work related so I can sleep and get rested. And then…24 hours in business class is something I really look forward to and can eat and drink myself silly!
