We are now traveling NNE at 26,000 feet and 560 mph. I know this because that's what the video monitor shows me.
We took off at 5:30, one hour and forty minutes after my ticket said we were supposed to depart. But as Frankfurt is only 7 hours ahead of Houston, our scheduled arrival time of 8:50 AM would make it a 10 hour flight (I miscalculated earlier). I'm pretty sure they announced that this is a 9 hour flight, though, so maybe we'll only be 40 minutes late. Perhaps they build an hour delay into the flight times just in case.
Oops! Dinner is getting prepared! Maybe I can sleep after the meal.
