Have you ever taken a flight with more than one connecting flight?

[World politics is up Schmitt creek]

Boston-Dublin-Paris-Lyon is the only one that comes to mind, but yes. Everything went fine until I got to Lyon, where Air France misplaced my luggage for two days.

[S019]

Yes,

Ahmedabad->Mumbai->Brussels->Newark was my most recent one in early 2018

[Santander]

Yes,

Ahmedabad->Mumbai->Brussels->Newark was my most recent one in early 2018

Imagine going to a sh**thole like Ahmedabad.

[HillGoose]

no i am not that boujee

Yes, we know you hate Indian people, no need to brag about it.

Santander is Pakistani, so his hatred makes sense.

I guess, but like I don't necessarily hate all Pakistanis, in fact, I believe a lot of them are good people, who just want to go on with their life like most people. My quarrels are with their military, which is known for propping up groups like the Taliban. I never understood hating a whole ethnicity over political issues. He is more than welcome to dislike the Indian government, I dislike it too, and believe that Modi's current actions are clearly pushing a campaign to persecute Muslims, which is obviously wrong, but that's different than hating all Indians with one brush. People are not a monolith, and never have been.

[Lechasseur]

I remember getting on in Brussels on a Jet Airways flight going from Mumbai to Newark with a stop in Brussels back in 2008 (and then went to NYC from there). It was the nicest flight I ever took (bar flying First Class on Air France)

Boston-Dublin-Paris-Lyon is the only one that comes to mind, but yes. Everything went fine until I got to Lyon, where Air France misplaced my luggage for two days.

Ah yes, the famous Paris Charles de Gaulle-Lyon Saint Exupéry connection that has to be made on all intercontinental trips to Lyon by plane.

I had to do that one twice I believe.

What did you think of Lyon? Other than for the lost baggage ofc

I had a conference in Lyon in 2000, I found the city delightful. The food was extraordinary, and strolling around the old city was a pleasant way to spend time after meetings. I did use the LYS-CDG connection on my return, but I met with colleagues in Munich prior to the conference, and flew to Lyon from there on Air Littoral.

I live near O'Hare so double connections are rare. I have however had some notable ones.

Both my return flights from Moscow, USSR required 3 segments:
1989 SVO-CDG (Air France); CDG-JFK (Pan Am); JFK-ORD (Pan Am)
1990 SVO-CDG (Aeroflot); CDG-STL (TWA); STL-ORD (TWA)

Reaching my last two states each ended up with 3 segment flights:
HI 2018 ORD-SEA (Alaska); SEA-SFO-KOA (United)
AK 2020 ORD-MSP-SEA-FAI (Delta, it was booked as ORD-MSP-FAI, but the stop in SEA was added when MSP-FAI was eliminated due to Covid-19)

Here's a related post from 2017, which isn't my travels, but was all done in one day within the contiguous 48 states.

On my last flight I was next to a woman returning home to the Catskills from a visit to family on a farm in eastern MT. Her flights that day went Glasgow-Billings-Denver-Chicago-Albany with significant drives at both ends. Yet she managed it all on one day.

Barcelona to Amsterdam to Atlanta to Kansas City

Most of the multi-connection flights here are intercontinental. Here are two relatively short ones within the US I took.

In 2015 I was in Springfield IL for a meeting on a Thursday morning (after watching a Cards game in St Louis the previous night) and I had a meeting the next morning in Vail CO. I found an afternoon departure from SPI with two connections so I could get to Vail the same night. The flight went SPI-ORD-DEN-EGE and was only 1182 miles.

I had a parade in Batavia IL that Sunday so my return flight on Saturday was only to Chicago. However, the DEN-ORD flight was overbooked, and I volunteered to be bumped to a flight that changed planes in the Twin Cities. That gave me a two-connection return flight EGE-DEN-MSP-ORD that was even shorter at 1134 miles.



I still had to get back to Springfield for my car and a Tuesday meeting. So I took the Metra rail and Amtrak for my final leg. My post on the Which Congressional Districts thread expressed my thoughts at the time.

I had a busy weekend.

CO-1,2,3,6,7

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Yes, on a trip to Seattle.

Many double-layovers for sure.

In terms of triple-layovers, Kayseri to Istanbul's Sabiha Gökçen airport, followed by a bus to Taksim Square, walking across the square to a different bus, to Istanbul's Atatürk airport to Paris to Dulles was my most annoying trip. Otherwise I've done daylong or multi-day layovers a couple of times, as on a Dulles-Paris-Belgrade-Sofia-Istanbul trip, but that was by my own design rather than out of necessity.
