Missed my fucking flight

[WoodyO]

As I've increased my frequency of flying, the amount of time I allot myself has decreased quite a bit. Depending on the time of day, the airport, the time of year, it ranges 30-60 minutes.

That said, I sleep like a baby on flights most of the time as long as my general boarding was low stress. Since I get so wound up about general lateness, it serves my desire to snooze through a good portion of my flight to get there a shade earlier than absolutely necessary. I'd rather wait a bit and sleep than get there with a few minutes to spare and be awake the entire flight. Most flights I'm out long before we reach cruising altitude, and sometimes before we even take off.

You're probably just tired from booking 6:30am flights like some kind of psychopath.

lol...I booked my flight late and didn't have a whole lot of options that were under a thousand dollars or had less than two layovers. I usually try to take a red eye going west coast to east.

I'm envious of you. I could do that in my 20's and 30's. Most times I'd be asleep before the wheels left the runway.

Now, I just don't sleep -- on planes or in general.

2 weeks! lololol

I can't sleep in cars or on planes. I usually only sleep around 4-5 hours a night after taking 3-5mg of melatonin

I'll take it for a few weeks then stop for a few weeks.

My ears hurt like a motherfucker on airplanes so I usually just sit there with headphones crammed in my ears pissed off

Chew gum...it will help you equalize to the pressure. Or yawn and swallow, move your jaw around.
