Quoted for Truth!
I once sat in a plane for over an hour before we took off. At least the staff was sensible enough to give the coach peeps a free round of drinks about 40 minutes into the ordeal. :-)
Then there was the time, before all my fame and fortune, when I spent the night in a terminal because the airline decided that my arrival at the counter 40 minutes before my flight took off (after waiting in line for over 45 minutes) did not meet their requirement of being there 30 minutes before the plane departed. I'll never fly Delta again.
Once you're in the air - if you have issues - I think it's just best to realize that you don't have control over anything going on, and stress is pointless. And besides, of all the ways to go - a planeflight death is probably one of the best: it's relatively quick, you probably don't feel anything, and your family gets a nice chunk of change in the process.
