Yes we are all lushes - and imagine that we have to go without alcohol from the time we put our bottle down in the car at the Park'n'Fly to the time we get on the plane. Fortunately, the cops aren't looking for us DUI at 5:30 AM, so I can have that last "eye opener" before having to go through security.

Truth be known, I'll have one or two on a morning flight to try and get me back to a few zzzzzzs prior to arrival. Without it, I wouldn't have a chance at dozing. If the meal is substantial and the flight is long, I may have a 3rd. Of course, this rules AS out these days.
