So I'm going to Africa soon...and it's going to be an 18 hour flight. I've been debating whether i should take take slipping pills and alcohol on the plane so i pass out for most of it...or if that's a bad idea. Some people say this is the best thing to do...others say you should drink as much water as possible and not alcohol.
what do you think???

There is only 1 right answer here. Lay off the alcohol and for goodness sakes don't mix it with sleeping pills. Long flights are hard on your body. If it has to deal with alcohol at the same time you will end up feeling like crap for a week after you arrive. Take the other advice. Drink the water.

A lot of research has been done to find and explore the reason why people drink alcohol. From research conducted in the Netherlands among 15 to 25 year-olds, the following answers came up: * Sociability (71%) * Like the taste (51%) * Feel at ease (12%) * Get intoxicated (6%) * Get drunk (2%) * Because everybody does it (6%) * To forget problems (0%) Alcohol gets risky when you need more to feel good. If you can't do that anymore on your own, and you use the alcohol for it, at a certain point you run the risk of starting to drink more and more each time to still feel the effects. This can be the beginning of an addiction. If you drink to feel good, you should ask yourself if you can also feel at ease without alcohol.

Slipping pills are for when you're going to a cold region of the world. You take them so you won't slip. As for the alcohol. I would do the rubbing alcohol thing myself. Put a straw in the bottle, insert in nose and snuff hard.

Depends... do you normally take sleeping pills with alcohol, so you can sleep? Would it not be easier to get on the plane tired... or perhaps bring a good book, reading always puts me to sleep. I personally don't drink, but even if I did; I doubt that I would want to find myself in some sleep induced coma, brought on by alcohol and sleeping meds.... while flying in a plane. What if your plane begins to crash.... will you be ready to assume the crash position? Just something to think about!

I wouldn't drink enough alcohol to get drunk and pass out. After all you will be suffering from jet lag

Do the sleeping pills. I would do the same. I hate flying over water. It freaks me out.
