lol, I’d need a pill. I don’t drink so a stiff drink wouldn’t help. The TSA is going to be using machines that measure someone’s Cortisol level as another “tool” to use to detect terrorists. Heck, my cortisol level would be high just on the freeway to get to the airport.
The only airline I feel safe on is El Al, they screen you like crazy..the airfare is insanely high but your safe(Knock on wood)..15 hours on a plane is just too much for me. I can’t do the pill method, my sister does but not me, I have to pee every half hour if I took a sleeping pill by the time I wake up my bladder would explode LOL. At least when I was on the plane there were no Arabs, a lot of Rabbi’s and families but no Arabs thank goodness otherwise I would have been even more nervous
Machogirl, hey! Where did you hear that (cortisol) about the jackboots? waaa. I don’t drink either... or fly... but... when I used to fly more, always had an exit strategy. I’ve read enough accounts from plane crash survivors to know what they did to get out. And, it did not include trying to grab their luggage...!
