CubbyTustard has a good list. I’ll add the following:

• Don’t fly a budget airline
• Pop a dramamine before the flight (it makes you sleepy)
• Bring gum with you on the plane (chew a piece on accent and descent to help pop your ears)
• If in the US, use the Libby app alongside your local library and download audiobooks for free to pass the time during flights
• Wear a mask on the plane (or better yet, one of those buff scarf things). Not only to protect against germs, but because if anyone farts, you’re probably not going to smell it. Plus, people kinda get intimidated by people wearing masks these days, so they probably won’t chat with you too much.

I love flying and being in the airport. Yes it can be stressful, but it’s a miracle of modern dang science that ~300 people at the same time can take to the sky. Awe-inspiring, really.
