The Pan Am Clipper flying boats transported the worlds most elegant and affluent adventurers from San Francisco to Hong Kong in the 1930s and 40s. Each flight could only accommodate 12 passengers to guarantee they were afforded every luxury on the 10 day round-trip journey, which included overnight stops at tropical hotels and cost $36,000 (inflation-adjusted).

This guide book to The Stranded Clipper, an invite-only home bar, imagines cocktails Pan Am travelers may have encountered along the way to Hong Kong.
