Mate of mine just came back from there yesterday.. took 20 hours as Virgin had overbooked the flights he was supposed to be on.

Yowch nasty! I flew with Virgin too, no problems here. Must have been unlucky.

Not too bad actually... Pretty much broke even.

Indeed, i'm sure there must be a point where I would get burned, but I haven't found it yet. Even when I was in Egypt, 46 degrees heat, out in the sun all day with no cream on, just dark brown.

Enjoy the skin damage/cancer

I would imagine that if I don't burn easily then my chances of developing melanoma are far less than a person who does. Skin cancer is extremely rare in black people and other dark skinned races.

I assume I have some "dark-skinned" blood in me somewhere and this is why I have a genetic resistance to sun exposure. If I am not getting burned then I can't see how the sun exposure is damaging my skin any more than the damage a very pale person recieves while using a lot of high factor sun cream.
