A senior executive at one of the Asian Development Bank’s overseas missions, John has become a seasoned traveler over the course of his long career at the bank.
John (who asked not to use his real name) flies on official business for the bank once a week. In line with ADB policy, John says that he usually makes a left turn when boarding.
“There have been times where I spent up to 60-80 hours a month for traveling, often flying through the night and dealing with chaotic airports,” explained John. “Traveling in business makes it a bit more bearable.”
