Trading Pencil and Paper for Planes!

 Hi everyone! We finally left the dungeon of Riley Hall for the cloudy skies of London.

Today was a travel day so we decided to survey the cryptologists to hear their opinions on air travel! We started the morning in Greenville, South Carolina and flew to Atlanta, Georgia. Next stop London! The flight time was 7 hours and 35 minutes and our favorite codebreakers spent their time reading books, watching movies, listening to music, and of course sleeping!  



 Best seat on a plane 

Anya: Hot take, but window seat is best because I can look outside 

Joseph: Best seat is easily exit row/front of a section because of the significant increase in leg room 


Best movie/TV show to watch on the plane

Rhodes: The screen that shows you where the plane is 

Josh: Encanto 

Margaret: La La Land


Favorite airport snack

Josh: Cheez-Its 

Ella: Obviously Lilia 


Worst movie to watch on the plane 

Ella: Marley and Me 

Dr. Woodard: Con Air 

Josh: Family Guy 


Best travel hack/must haves 

Josh: Beef jerky 

Ella: Passport and deodorant 


If you could describe yourself as an airline, which would be? 

Rhodes: Spirit 

Ella: Lilia would be southwest because she’s chronically delayed 

Josh: Southwest but crankier 


Worst airport experience 

Ava H: Frontier 

Hannah: Having to go through TSA 3 times 

Lilia: Air Canada 

Dr. Woodard: I once flew out of CLT up to DC. Circled during the storm. Couldn’t land. Went back to CLT. Then I took off for DC from CLT a second time on the same day! 




After we disembarked from the plane we headed to our swanky housing. The city of London awaits at our fingertips! 


Cheerio! 

Maggie and Caitlyn!!!
