the worst part of long flights is that if you get the flesh eating virus, you're dead before you land...

(May 23 06, 10:00)or any other fatal virus, for that matter. Another good reason for bubbles.

I've gone the Tokyo/Europe route a couple of times. I'd say bring a few sleeping pills and don't hold back on the drinks until you're drousy.
Heads up: I'd hold the drugs, at least on the plane/before takeoff. Securitywise. I don't have any percentage but I do think they tend to "randomly" check more of us foreigners at Narita. Caught means an instant ban that last for ever. And the right to keep you in custody for whatever reason lasts for weeks. Phonecall? Nope, not allowed.

the last time I was on a long flight I got so drunk before boarding that I had to be taken aboard on a stretcher

I would like to state the obvious.
It looks quite easy and fun, stating the obvious that is, I want to do it more.

any flight over an hour is a long flt. to me. After that, legs start cramping, back and neck get strained. Worst part is, I can't sleep on planes... I've taken many a sleeping pill and shit like that, and I just end up falling out, only to wake up 20 minutes later with a muscle spasm. Drinking is bad, because I usually stack it on top of the drugs, and eventually puke, because turbulence is inevitable.
Matter of fact, once on a flight from OAK > LA > LV, I was hungover, and kept trying to sleep. Then I woke up in a cold sweat and felt like I was going to puke. And of course, there were no puke bags in my aisle, so I got out of my seat, headed to the rest room, only to find that I was in line behind some other guy. I had a cup of ice in my hand from the drinks they passed out earlier, and for some reason I was obsessed with putting that cup down. Suddenly, some guy was standing in my face asking me if I was alright, and I just looked at him like he was crazy, and replied "Uh, yeah, I'm cool"... then I felt something wet on my hand. I looked down and oddly enough, I had an ice cube resting on the back of my hand, and for the life of me I couldn't understand the physics behind that... then, I started noticing peoples feet next to me. It was at that point that my orientation straightened out and I realized I was lying on the floor of the plane. I fucking passed out and fell straight back like a board one guy told me. he said he was in shock that I didn't hit on chair or anything on the way down. So, until the plane landed, I had my own personal oxygen tank and looked like a complete idiot. The paramedics and LAX police boarded the plane and everything on our stop in LA. They took my vital signs like 5 times because they were training some n00b medics, and I had to sign about 5 different documents stating that I refused to go into the city to a hospital to seek immediate medical attention. Then the flight attendants (2 of them were actually hot) were all over me for the rest of the flight. "Can we get you anything else", and "here some snacks I brought"
It was horrible. Then there was that time I got food poisoning about 1.5 hours before I got on a flt. from Vegas to NY... *sigh

(May 23 06, 11:10)I win for longest bus ride, which is arguably worse than taking a plane. Unless you're sick, in which case you can get fresh air at the next rest stop and you can't do that on a plane unless you want to also commit suicide.

A few years ago when I was living in St. Louis, I hopped a plane to Chicago. It's normally a 1 hour flight. Well Chicago had real shitty weather and the plane couldn't land. We circled the airport for 7 hours. Since it was a 1 hour flight there was no food or drinks. At about the 3 hour mark everyone on the plane was like wtf, why don't they just take us back the hour to St. Louis, land the plane, let us chill in the airport and then bring us back. Worst flight ever.
