Im curious if any other CP members share this fear? Or others methods to help relax and enjoy. I do not want to let this fear stop me from seeing the world, but I also don't think it can be good to drink for 8 hours on a plane.

Any advice or personal stories?
I usually just check in, get rid of my bags. I then go up to the second floor outside across the road in front of the hotel and smoke a big fatty.

You will sleep right after your meal for about 5 hours.
