I always expect the worst on longer flights but this one surprised me. Very little turbulence, only a few small bumps on descent. Manageable even for me.

Was nervous about this flight but honestly didn't need to be. Smooth the whole way, the 0h 50m went by fast.

First-time passenger · November

Totally smooth January flight. The seatbelt sign came on once briefly over the Gulf but nothing actually happened. Great trip.
