How to Survive a 12-Hour Flight on Level Airlines’ Airbus 330: A First-Hand Account – Part 1

Greetings from 35,000 feet in the air! My wife and I are currently on a 12-hour flight from California to Barcelona with Level Airlines because of a trip of a lifetime, and let me tell you, I am feeling the excitement. Why, because we are about to embark on a 7-day Mediterranean cruise on the Royal Caribbean Symphony of the Seas!

Now, some people might dread a 12-hour flight, but I have to say, I’m kind of enjoying it. Level Airlines is the only airline we found that offered non-stop service from San Francisco to Barcelona. The bulkhead legroom is more than enough, and I’m making the most of it. I’m stretching my legs as much as possible and even practicing some yoga moves in the aisle. The flight attendants are giving me some strange looks, but hey, I’m just trying to stay limber for all the shore excursions we’ll be doing on the cruise.

Speaking of the cruise, have you heard about the Royal Caribbean Symphony of the Seas? This ship is massive! It has everything you could ever want on a vacation, from a FlowRider surf simulator to a zipline that stretches across the ship. And let’s not forget about the food. I’ve already started planning out my meals because I’m pretty sure I’ll be eating my weight in lobster and steak by the end of the trip.

But let’s get back to the flight for a moment. As I board the plane, I am immediately struck by the sleek and modern design of the cabin, very soothing. The dimly lit environment, comfortable seating, and spacious legroom make for an inviting and relaxing ambiance. I quickly settle into my seat as I prepare myself for the long journey ahead.

One of the best things about flying on Level Airline is their in-flight entertainment. The personal entertainment system is great because it is loaded with an impressive selection of movies, TV shows, and music to while away the hours. I’ve been binge-watching all the latest movies and TV shows, and my wife is catching up on her reading.

As the hours tick by, I appreciate the extra legroom provided by my bulkhead seat. Despite being in the first row of economy class, I don’t feel too cramped or crowded at any point during the flight and I feel more relaxed because of it.

As we get closer to landing, I’m getting more and more excited about our Mediterranean adventure. We’ll be visiting ports in Spain, France, and Italy. I can’t wait to explore the beautiful cities and try the local cuisine.

Overall, my experience flying on Level Airlines’ Airbus 330 is a pleasant one. The cabin is comfortable and modern, the service is excellent, and the extra bulkhead seat legroom is a definite plus. If you ever have the chance to fly on Level Airline and cruise on the Royal Caribbean Symphony of the Seas, do not hesitate! Bon voyage!
