Today marks the final leg of my incredible around-the-world adventure as I make my way back to Phoenix, Arizona! Starting from the Holiday Inn Melbourne Airport, I’ll take you along on United Airlines Flight 61 from Melbourne to San Francisco aboard their Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. Along the way, I’ll explore Melbourne Airport’s efficient Terminal 2, review United’s Economy Class seat, meals, and entertainment on this 13-hour, 7,871-mile flight, and share my thoughts on the overall experience. The journey ends with a smooth landing at San Francisco International Airport before my final flight to Phoenix.
