I hated flying, couldn't stand it, until I turned 21, get tipsy and fall asleep. I had a 7am flight, bar opened at 6am, ordered a double bloody mary, fell right back asleep on the flight. It's like you can pay $20 for fancy pillows and blankets to be comfortable or just buy a double bloody mary for $10 and be fine

Ah yes and international flights are the best cause you usually get free wine and beer. I despise flying and a few years ago I took my longest flight yet from California to Japan. When the flight attendant came around and I ordered red wine, she saw my white knuckled fists clamped on the arm rests and went "I'll make sure to keep em' comin', sugar." Thank you merciful airplane lady.

International flights = the only time I'll "think" about flying first class

Yeah screw paying for those overpriced pillows. I just fill a ziplock bag with a shit load of mini bottles and ask for OJ/Seltzer. Plus, I always share with my neighbors which, more often than not, leads to getting free snacks in return.
