If you are thinking of taking a trip to the South Pacific and live on the East Coast, consider a non-stop flight from New York's JFK Airport aboard an Air Tahiti Nui Plane. These flights just started about a year ago and are approximately 12 1/2 hours each way. This is a long time on a plane, but Air Tahiti Nui makes it pretty comfortable in Economy and serves not so bad airline food. You fly through the night, so you will get some sleep. The flight attendants were extremely friendly. When you step off the plane in Tahiti you will realize that the long ride was worth it!
