I usually take 8 - 10 long haul flights (4 hours or more) to Europe and also to the west coast. I cut myself off after 2 drinks. Today there’s a guy who looks to be on his 4th scotch.

Only on long haul drives. Booze makes me feel funny at high altitude but helps me drive faster so i get there quicker

I don't drink on planes, outside the champagne when I first sit down. Not really sure why I just never have.

I maybe have one drink when flying. Flying is already so drying to your skin...don't want the alcohol to dry my skin even more.

Sorry for partying.

But yeah, on an overnight back to the states the flight attendant didn’t have change for a $20. So I just told her to give me 4 minis and a sprite.

I once drank 64 beers on a cross country flight with my buddy Wade.

I pretty much have to catch a buzz to have any chance of not being completely miserable the entire flight. I’m too tall to be both sober and comfortable after about an hour

It’s a rare flight when I don’t drink. I always order two bottles of booze at a time. Get less dirty looks from the flight attendant that way.

They just love when you hit the service button and have to get you a second drink on a 90 minute flight. Lol
