Spend a night in Heathrow airport (London) waiting for your 6am flight to Chicago and you will knock out before you know it and snore loudly on the plane.
hehe are you shitting me? I need whatever you were taking cause I have spent many a painful morning in LHR waiting for that flight... never can seem to sleep...after fling from Asia to Europe or North America twice a month for a year, you think I would have perfected airplane sleep, but alas....its still just misery for me

grrr...
wow...you must've racked up some mad ff miles....care to share?????
The worst part in coach is when you're reaching down trying to get your stuff from under the seat in front of you and the person reclines the seat into your head. Or sitting next to a baby that needs changing.
I schedule my flights based on when I can use miles to upgrade... But United Business has awful seats; the headrests hurt!

Singapore airlines....fucking awesomeeven in coach..
and Emirates Airlines...amazing
huge seats, great food, on demand movies and in seat video games on all planes in all classes...and the stewardesses are still pretty. Now don't get me wrong, I am all about dudes....but if I am going to be stuck on a plane for 18 hrs, the last thing I need is some fat bitchy middle aged woman past her prime, who hates me cause I am not, looking at me like instead of asking her for ice water I anally raped her mother an poured sugar in her gas tank, thank you kevin smith. A nice sweet pretty thai woman who brings me tea and doesn't smell like tuna and take up the whole fucking aisle..that makes for a pleasant flight.
Seriously, why are US airlines so fucking awful? the military will only contract with US carriers, which not only means that way more of your tax dollars than necessary (us carriers on many routes, esp asia, can be twice as much) are going to glorified substidies to poorly run US airlines that started out without a coherent business model, raped thier employee pension funds to expand byeond hubs with little to no long-term plan, and now are crying cause they are going broke, but also that poor working-class military sods like me have to fly ghetto for 15 hours to Japan with Marion, the bitter divorcee from Minneappolis who has drowned her sorrow in new york fudge chunk for the last five years, refusing to bring us water.
I sleep in all different positions... depending on how hot/cold I am, how i'm feeling, who i'm with.

Same...but depends on who i'm with. It's definitely nice when you wake up in the middle of the night and there is someone there next to you. Also when you wake up and find that while you were asleep they put their arms around you... I think i'd trade that for a sexy shower any day. *sigh* I miss that

After returning from France and arriving in London around 8pm, it didn't make sense to check into my hotel then get up butt fuck early and chance it with a cabbie. Moreover, the trains didn't start operating til 6am and I had to be at the airport by that time. So what do you do but find a vacant bench to lay down on in Heathrow. No such luck though. Morning came around, got checked in, got some breaky (fuckin' Aussies and their slang) and went to catch my plane. I just spent 2 weeks with a bunch of Aussies and Kiwis partying it up in Paris, Lucerne, Venice, Munich, and Amsterdam . . .
If you don't fall asleep on the flight home - at least a little - then you're an insomniac.
Ohh and I do agree with you about US flight accommodations, really cheap. Any more than 8 hours and I'll fly business class, to me it's worth the extra money.

I know how you feel I miss it too Beanie. But I want both the sleep and the shower.
