    Warum nicht "Die Fahrt ist lang"?

    That sounds like a reasonable translation to me; report it if you'd like.

      "Der Trip ist lang." for "the trip is long" ? really? funny how the translation here on the discussion page is "Die Reise ist lang."

      Both are possible, though (der) Trip in German usually refers to a shorter period of time or distance.

      I've most often heard der Trip in reference to a drug trip.
