1. Try to get some sleep before you fly. A rocky stomache and a bashed head just don't go super well together.
2. Use your imagination. If you can be a child again and think of the clouds as candy or whipped cream or cotton or something other than just moisture latched onto dust, you will have a wealth of humourous visions open to you when you're flying over said clouds.
3. Use your sense of humour. There are so many odd things that happen on air planes or in airports that people just don't stop to notice. Little flight attendant men half running while doing a sort of limbo-like backwards lean as they go down the plane's aisle just deserves a quiet, hidden smile.
4. Make friends with your flight attendants. This only applies if you don't speak their language. The best method for this is to smile at them and pretend like you almost kind of might speak their language but just aren't chatty at the moment. Having a friend on board always makes the flight more pleasant.
5. Observe the land below you whenever possible. What on earth is the point of flying out of and into beautiful cities if you're just going to close your eyes during every ascent and descent?
6. Plan your flight food carefully. One good dark chocolate Cadbury's bar, carefully rationed, will make the trip far pleasanter than any airplane dinners, no matter the quality.

You're so sweet. I almost cried when I saw your comment about the chocolate bar. I miss you!
