It looks like there are a few major airports in the path of totality, including at least one very close to the centerline (CLE in Cleveland, Ohio). Maybe just fly in, watch it from the airport, and fly home?
- inanutshellus 3y agoI mentioned this a while back[0] but you really want to be in a rural area when it happens. Most important thing is being in totality, but if you're going to go all the way to totality, go rural. When the sky goes dark, and the world suddenly cools, and the birds and insects suddenly wake up and come to life all around you... you'll know you did it right. It's magic. I'll be at a YMCA camp that's hosting a family weekend of summer camp style events. Win win. [0]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39468875 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39468875
- madcaptenor 3y agoI've heard of people planning on doing this at DFW (which is not all that close to the centerline). I also know a guy who's flying up from Atlanta to Indianapolis, I think just for the day, although he plans to leave the airport. Flights are much more expensive than normal, though. But as that would be the only expense maybe it's not crazy?
