I have a horrible 12 hour flight coming up in around eight hours, and this is my logic:

If I pull an all nighter right now, by the time I need to board the plane I’m gonna be pretty beat up, so it will be easier to fall asleep, but if by some reason I can’t sleep in the plane, then I’m gonna be extra-beat up when I arrive in Madrid and I might just like... die or something. Either way. I think there’s no turning back.

Just do what I did on my last transatlantic flight, get hammered, pass out on the flight, and wake up an hour before you land. Basically didn’t have to deal with readjusting my body clock.

that would be brilliant in this case, since I land in Madrid at around 7AM local time.

Iberia, a bunch of dicks*.

*well it was one occasion. We were waiting to come back to the U.K. from Spain and o ur flight was delayed as our aircraft had a tyre issue. Iberia had the same aircraft and tyres, etc... and our airline asked if we could have one of their tyres while our airline flew a replacement out. Iberia said no, so instead of a two hours delay, it was seven hours as we waited for an aircraft to fly a tyre out from the U.K. to replace the one that had the issue.

On a 12 hour flight, your going to g et some shut-eye whether you need it or not as boredom sets in. There is only so much sitting and watching the small screen and eating and drinking you can do.

Enjoy your flight.

Iberia is an airline I hate, but Aeromexico is 15% more expensive and no other airlines have the sort of connections to reach my final destination in two flights. Maybe Air France but thats even more expensive.

It sort of makes me miss Mexicana de Aviación... but of course it went famously bust like a decade ago.

Ours was a Thompson Airways (now TUI) flight, not bad, cheap, not as cheap as EasyJet or Ryanair, but certainly better and didn’t have to pay for every single extra (regular stuff that Easy.. and Ryan..  choose to now charge you for).

Did that after our wedding, stayed up all night and got on a 12 hour 6am flight from PHL to Kauai...it was fuckin terrible!!! I couldn’t sleep, the plane was packed I was going to loose my mind!

I’m going to go ahead and say that trip is what has caused me to need medication to fly. On the way home I was so anti flying for 12 hours that I told my wife that I was not leaving lol. Long story but I went to the ER in Kauai and told them that unless they wanted another tourist turned homeless person (this is an issue in Hawaii) that they need to give me something to get me on that plane...Couple of Valium , shot, and a beer later...bliss. I slept on an airplane for the first time in my 34 years on earth.

Even short flights now...I will get as fucked up as possible without being one of those people that causes a problem on the plane lol.
