Request

I have something of an update for those who still bother to check this blog though it has not been updated in over a year. No, I have not completely forgotten about it. I simply have had nothing to update with. Until now...

Soon, I will be going to visit relatives. However, to get there, I will need to fly---for the very first time.

I am asking for any advice you have to offer for a first time flier. Tips to remember in order to make the flight more comfortable, tricks to keep myself occupied, how to deal with other passengers, and whatever other advice you can offer to someone who has no clue as to what to expect.
