Oh, man, if you mean the Outbound flight, that would be a huge mistake to skip it IMO, because it's pretty awesome and the only thing it has in common with the prequels is that it's the same time period. And it has Thrawn in it!

I don't know why I thought that was the one I'd skip. It may be because it has Anakin. I'm just not a fan of any of the Lucas Prequel Story. I might save it for last or maybe toss it into my suitcase so it's there for a future long flight. After all, Zahn has become my go-to. Might as well trust him on this one too.
