No, only the people in first class sleeper cars are able to lie down really....I go in econo class, so its like a slouching chair, just as comfortable as any airplane seat I guess. There isn't much to see on the eastern leg of the trip in Canada, its all just forest and marshes...In western Canada you see all the rockey mountains! Many people go out west just to go on the long train ride :) Hi!

That is going to be a long flight, but I had a friend who flew to Japan on Singapore Airlines and she loved it. I hope it all works out well for you both.

Jackson will be on his flight :-) ) <em><strong>That's what I am wanting to find out, the Singapore Airlines Airbus A380 (biggest airplane in the world). But we will be sitting in economy so I doubt there will be any difference?

I hope you take lots and lots of pictures and try to make the plane trip an adventure for Pristine. Maybe have her draw a book. Or bring a craft project that she can do easily. Let's see, How about home made paper dolls and clothing? Here is the link http://familycrafts.about.com/od/paperdolls/ig/Paper-Doll-Accessories/Paper-Doll-Body.htm By using pre-cut forms you can bring crayons and she can work to design the clothes and then also have them to play with. If you use a heavier printer paper they'll stand up pretty well. <em><strong>Thank you very much for the link, Maribeth! Pristine loves paper dolls! I've bought a hard paper to print the pattern. Hopefully she'll get busy and do something else other than watching movies aboard the plane.</strong></em> Oh how exciting!

I know everyone is thinking "you can go do stuff on a train" but you really can't, unless you have acess to dining cars (you have to be in first class to do so). So we usually pack food, and lots of movies on the laptop, and veg out until its time for bed! Hopefully your flight will go over smoothly ;) <em><strong>Do you get to lie down on that long train ride?
