A group of friends will be going to Las Vegas at the end of January. We will be staying at a condo that was just bought by one of them. One of our male friends will not have to worry about money for anything except gambling and we really won't be going just to do that. We just want to party and enjoy other things that vegas has to offer.He is scared to get on a plane because he knows if it goes down, that he will be dead. I already told him that i was going to get him drunk but now i am seriously considering the fact that if something happens to him that it will be my fault and i will have his family to deal with. What do you think I should do?

Considering airlines won't let you enter a plane when you're intoxicated, I can't see how that would be a good idea. A better idea may be to give him a nice dose (50mg) of benedryl once he gets on the plane - he'll sleep the whole way.

Give him the actual statistics of flying. More people are killed in ONE day due to cars accidents than in 10 years of flying.
The chances of the plane going down is so VERY, VERY slim. Literally thousands and thousands of planes fly EVERYDAY - yet how often to they actually crash?
One out of every million flights or less!!!
Flying is one of the safest means of transportation...
Don't get him drunk though - alcohol is a depressant, and it could actually make the situation worse.

tell him taking sleeping pill. When he get drunk, he may do something weird instead of sleeping.

No, you should not get him drunk to get him on the plane! It's possible that the airline wouldn't even let him on the plane, depending on how drunk he is or how obvious it is that he's drunk.

The only time I've heard of someone drunk getting on a plane was in the opening pages of James Frey's "A Million Little Pieces" and that turned out to be embellished.

If he is drunk the airline has the right to not let him board.

Don't do it. From personal experience, it's NOT fun to be drunk on a plane. My friends and I thought it would be fun to get drunk and get on a plane to spring break and it was just terrible. First, you're cramped as hell and you can't move around. There's no air on the plane and God forbid if you get sick. After 6 hours on a flight, we were dehydrated, headachy, and woozy.
Take pills instead.
