Alternatively, breakfast at Bar Pinotxo in BCN of salchicha, ensalada and cava.
Heading to San Mateo in a couple of weeks, plan on taking my son' s girlfriend for that Irish coffee!

As a Brit with usually little access to such delicacies - a pulled pork sandwich from Corky's at MEM

From the wall of snacks in the gift shop, I always buy two for $8 to save that extra buck and a half over the single price.

Seeing the smile on my husband's face when I emerge from the gift shop with lots of bags of peanut M&M's.

Sleeping diagonally in the bed! (And no snoring to listen to.)

Climate control. We don't have AC at home, so when I am in a hotel I use it to the fullest. Usually keep the room at 60º when I am in.

I almost always have a McMuffin before early flights. I get sad if I don't have time/there is no McDonalds (lookin at you, LGA)

Why have I never thought of coffee with Bailey's? This sounds like such a relaxing way to watch a movie/get ready for bed on the plane!

Thanks, folks!

Definitely a ginger ale - every flight. If in F or C, Bailey's after dinner.

Double Woodford Reserve, rocks in separate glass.
Bailey with coffee.

I never drink these at home and have never paid for a bottle of Woodford nor Baileys

It is the best, I hate having to wait for the FA to get to my row, so I can settle in and relax!
