i've been to ocho rios-best holiday ive ever had

Ahhh it's lovely isn't it.

yep,
proper dream holiday-i was amazed at the amount of poverty i saw when i was on the coach to the hotel though
i was also amazed at the huge policeman standing in the road, directing traffic whilst holding a pink parasol

Yes, I find it so easy , always wake up half way through .

darlo this threads about sleeping on planes-not sex

went to Barbados a few years back, i got back home with eyes like a rabbit, itchy red rimmed and blurry vision all through tiredness. Next long haul flight iam going to take a sleeping pill i think.

I hate flying, HATE IT!!! petrified of it. I usually fall asleep though through pure exhaustion because ive spent 2 days not sleeping thinking about it, add as many free glasses of wine as i can cram in and a few at the airport and that usually sees me off into a drunken stupor

Last time i flew back from turkey i fell asleep face down in mr gypsies crotch just totally drunk i was but he didnt want to move me incase he woke me. So he just suffered the odd looks from people walking past

i love flying, the take off is 'citin' the bit in the middle over water is boring, but have to admit, the landing is defo the best!

oh and last time i flew, was up all night packing and sorting other business out beforehand. so slept (and snored ) through sheer exhaustion.

Yeahhh. It's not easy but I can fall asleep... eventually I usually put my head on the little "table" flap thingy, which was a bit of a problem the last time I flew because the person in front of me leaned back so much his chair was practicially squishing my head so I had to find other ways to get a kip

Enjoy your flight

They move?

If they don't move you've likely got a problem, a bumpy ride at a minimum. it's quite alright, they are supposed to move.

Its called Wing Flex.... If you ever get to Fly on a Boeing 777 it looks awesome...... What it is is is down to is the Fuel Tanks in the wing starting to burn up fuel. That is stored in them..All perfictally normal

If I ever have to fly in a plane I will try and remember that when the wings start flapping.

Exactly I have attempted the one trip and I assume that they had to mend the sides of the chair I gripped them so hard!
Never again.

Id rather be on a plane, then any Motorway on a weekend with numptey drivers.

Far safer in the air

I was just having a conversation with the OH about this. He manages to fall asleep for the full 12-hour flight to Tokyo and I'm awake the whole way. no wonder it takes me days to get over it!

I went to Florida at Christmas and I made sure my lappy, DS and Iphone was fully charged and took some DVDs with me. I didn't sleep but I wasn't bored. Luckily they now encourage you wander around the plane so on the whole an enjoyable flight.

I've only ever managed to sleep on a plane once, and that was when I got bumped up to business class on a transatlantic flight....... pure heaven!

I have slept on a plane before, was only for a roughly 20 mins though

i cant sleep sitting up unless im really tired maybe listen to some relaxing music it might help

I have been to Australia and new Zealand a few times,a sleep mask is a must, personnel cd player, and some alcohol also helps.so dose a boring book.
