Welp, maybe this helps y’all feel a little better.

I flew on big cargo planes in the military(not pilot). We had nice bunk beds, a stove, and most of the time plenty of room to move about. After takeoff my body is trained to immediately pass the fuck out. The nice humming of jet engines is an instant sleep sound.

However, on commercial planes I don’t have my bunk beds or stove so I am never comfy enough to fall asleep. I get the fun uncomfortableness of a plane ride + every fiber in my body screaming SLEEP while simultaneously not being able to sleep.

I hate flying now.
