'It's not weird': The people who love to stare at airplane flight maps

"I'll fly to Qatar for 14 hours and that map will be on the entire time," said Sunderland, 41, a content creator and consultant who splits time between the D.C. area and Phoenix. Flight attendants don't always understand: "Sometimes they'll reach in and be like, 'Do you want us to turn it off?' And I'm like, 'No, no. Leave it on.'"
