To fly the longest flight in the world

Welcome to one of my very first Inaugural flights in my life and also the longest flight in the world on Singapore Airline's Airbus A350 ULR aircraft.
My main ambition was to be a pilot, well at the least, I was able to get my PPL after lots of perseverance.
Since then I had put a lot of effort into Youtube filming at airports, mainly Heathrow and countries within Asia.
I had just got back from Taiwan connecting in Hong Kong and arriving at Vienna Airport for an overnight stay, I saw the news about Singapore Airlines having a date for the new service between Singapore and Newark Airport.

This took me by surprise and financially I wasn't ready as I usually require 6 months staying at home to save up again but this was a chance in a lifetime event.
Luck came my way a week later when one of my Hong Kong from a mountain video came to life,  it's hard to tell which video might become popular and I never thought it would but this one video did something that i'd never think would happen and I was able to afford the flight after a month, something which would have taken 5 times as long, so maybe it was written in the stars to take this flight.

As the payments are like a month later, I had to go overdrawn to book the one way ticket in premium economy.  I secured the ticket on the Singapore Airlines website for $1031

Now this meant I needed to plan the transfer hotels and how to get to the inaugural flight airport from the UK.

I booked the latter part about a month later, waiting for more funds to come in and a budget plan in hand.

The first flight is going to be happening soon so stay tuned for the trip out there
