I had a 10 hour flight from Vancouver to London last summer. to keep myself occupied, I brought along... -some books -a few magazines -an ipod. you could do the same..or you could bring.. -a portable DVD player and your favorite movies. It's gonna be a long flight...trust me..but you'll probably fall asleep half the way too! have fun! :)

you have 2 hands and yourself. Have fun.

books, magazines, ipod, jigsaw puzzles, word search puzzles and crossword puzzles, write in a journal, write old fashioned letters to friends, bring and write out all the birthday cards for the year, make an early xmas list, if you can use your laptop inflight (if you have one) do the games on that, sleep of course, dont know if you are male or female but start a new hobby like crochet, bring a deck of cards to play with a passenger, watch the inflight movie. hope this helps.

A couple of good books. A new magazine or two that you've never read before. Music puzzle books - sudoku, crossword, logic puzzles, etc. homework if you're in school, office work (if you can take it with you) Map and guidebook of London, to figure out where you're going and what you're going to see there.

Well, there's always your MP3 player. Usually, there are music channels you can listen to (you probably have to supply your own headphones-it's a good idea anyway for both $$ and health safety issues) and movies you can watch on the backs of seats. Then, there's always the old standby--the BOOK. Personally, I advise against using electronic devices that use air-wave frequency because they used to foul up the airplane's electrical system and cause danger for the flight. There are other small things you can do like crossword puzzles or word searches. That may be too simple for you to enjoy though. You can always write if you are creative or just like to journal. That's always good. You can start a travel journal by describing what you see when you look out the plane window-if you get a window seat. Otherwise, just write down your expectations of London, etc. Personally, I don't do any of these things because I just sit frozen and praying until the plane touches down and comes to a stop on the runway. Flying terrifies me.

Bring a travel pillow and small blanket and catch up on sleep so you won't be too jet lagged when you get there. Bring a blank journal and pen or colored pencils and start a journal about your trip. Start reading a good book. Bring a portable dvd player or mp3 player Bring cards and have whoever next to you play . Have some cocktails while you watch the in flight movie and then pass out. Make a list of things you want to do on your trip. Make a list of 100 things you are greatful for ...or 100 reasons you love your mom or friend etc and give it to them when you get back ( we dont usually have time to think about positive things in our daily busy lives!) Bring some candy or snacks you love in your bag. Start a toilet paper race like they did in this video clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLOYDKX1JLc&feature=PlayList&p=D441FE072E7411EA&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=5 cross-words puzzles / soduko etc
8 :
A couple of snacks, granola/ candy bars, an mp3 player, maybe a portable laptop to watch movies and a few magazines.
9 :
simple and cheap get an Nintendo ds or some other portable console like psp get pokemon zelda and super mario, they will keep u occupied plus u get free wifi with the ds at the airport
10 :
books ipod in flight movie - make sure u bring your own headphones, so u dont have 2 use the crappy airline headphones and some sleeping pills, dont OD!!! just enough to let u sleep
11 :
Yes. Is there a day that we don't have to see this question? What big mystery is it to answer this yourself? Unbelievable.

There are many online USA based travel websites which offer best and cheap air fares for Los Angeles. For example ... http://www.flightstolosangeles-lax.co.uk

I suggest you to fly Air France: LAX-CDG-HRW
3 :
I would start off with http://www.kayak.com but I would think flights are cheaper if you go with either American, Delta or United. Virgin Atlantic and British Airways is usually more expensive but they have better service.

I don't think that there is a non-stop to Athens from LAX. So let's say you fly Delta. You go to Atlanta (4.5 hours). Then Atlanta to Athens is 11 hours. So you'll have about 15 hours of flying time. Add to that the time of your layover.....probably somewhere between 2 to 5 hours. The whole trip will take you 18 to 21 hours...... NOW, if you fly with Lufthansa, it will be 11.5 hours to Munich, and another 3 hours to Athens. Add in your layover time....it'll be a little shorter that way. There are other itineraries as well. Go to http://www.orbitz.com/ and put in some dates....and see what comes up.

Greek airports are all ruined in riots, burned in fires ! Civil war !
3 :
Only military flights ! Red Cross refugee planes also.
4 :
Most of embassies advise people not to travel to destinations like Greece, Somalia or Yemen in such times, and is the possibility the situation might escalate and occupy the airport in order to make their voices heard. I would suspect the islands might not be affected as in Athens for example, however it always takes a small group people with 'problems' to affect the tourists' life. Keep an eye on the news and Home office web site.

Civil war in Greece ! Dangerous ! Official US Embassy report : The U.S. Government remains deeply concerned about the heightened threat of terrorist attacks against U.S. citizens and interests abroad. Like other countries that are members of the Schengen Agreement for free cross-border movement, Greece’s open borders with its European neighbors allow the possibility of terrorist groups entering/exiting the country with anonymity. As the first entry point into Schengen from points south and east, Greece’s long coastline and many islands also heighten the possibility that foreign-based terrorists might try to exploit Greece’s borders. Domestic terrorist organizations such as Revolutionary Struggle and “Sect of Revolutionaries” have become increasingly active against both domestic and foreign targets in Greece. Recent attacks and attempted attacks have included the use of Molotov cocktails (gasoline bombs), small arms and rifle fire, and improvised explosive devices, the largest being a 50-kilo car bomb which failed to detonate before the police arrived. The Greek police forces, other Greek governmental agencies, private American and Greek businesses, and the United States Embassy have been attacked in the last three years. Recent actions indicate that the perpetrators are indiscriminate. The risk of “being in the wrong place at the wrong time” in the event of a terrorist action is a concern for residents and visitors. U.S. tourists or residents in Greece should remain vigilant, exercise caution, and monitor local developments. Some current terrorist organizations are aligned with the ideology of the older Marxist terrorist group November 17 (N17) which targeted Greek businessmen and officials, as well as officials from NATO countries in Greece, from the mid-1970s until the early part of this decade. N17 terrorists murdered 23 people, including five U.S. Government employees. Strikes and demonstrations are a regular occurrence. Greece is a stable democracy and these activities for the most part are orderly and lawful. However, a wave of incidents started when a teenager was shot and killed in an encounter with the police in December 2008, 2009, summer 2010. Incidents occurred throughout Greece, but the primary sources of violence were in Athens and Thessaloniki, Protestors there engaged in violent confrontations with the police and carried out destructive vandalism and rioting in localized areas, some of which are areas frequented by tourists, injuring numerous police officers. Riot control procedures often include the use of tear gas. Visitors should keep abreast of news about demonstrations from local news sources and hotel security. When there are demonstrations, visitors should be aware of and avoid places where demonstrators frequently congregate, such as the Polytechnic University area, Exarchia, Omonia, and Syntagma Squares in Athens, and Aristotle Square in Thessaloniki. The Omonia and Exharchia areas of Athens are at particular risk for crime and politically-motivated violence; U.S. Embassy personnel and their families have been urged strongly to avoid these areas between 9 pm and dawn.

No, no no...Greece is not able to solve this crisis alone. We need our neighbor countries armies and police to intervene to organize order.

Nonstop from LAX to DeGaulle is about 13 hours.

Around 11hrs.
3 :
The other posters are correct; it took me between 6-7 hours to fly to Paris from Philadelphia. Add an additional 5-6 hours from LAX to the Philadelphia area. Bear in mind that if you layover, of course, your total time will increase.
4 :
The usual flight time is almost exactly ten hours.

If you were to get a direct flight it would be approx. 10 Hrs 22 Min. You can get flight times for airports all over the world at https://www.jets.com/
