My last business trip before retiring was from San Luis Obispo to Los Angeles to Heathrow to Cape Town. From SBP to LAX was via a regional CRJ, then 747's on the next two legs (British Air going, South African Air returning). In the span of 27 hours I was airborne for 24 of them. Wide body or not, it wasn't fun.
When I got to my absolutely beautiful 5-star hotel (!!) and took my clothes off to shower off the breath of 700 others, I was MORTIFIED with the swelling in my lower legs, ankles, and feet. OMG! Twenty years ago wearing compression stockings wasn't a common thing.
