tips to make plane rides more bearable?

When i’m in a plane i’m genuinely in my worst sensory hell. Not only am i cramped and exhausted, i’m bored, my mind is racing, im agitated, i have no internet, i can’t go to use the bathroom easily, i feel musty and dusty. It’s so claustrophobic and horrible. I would rather sit in a train for 10 hours than take 1 hour flight, but for some occasions it just can’t be avoided.

I HATE planes so much. I can’t even sleep, I’m just counting down the minutes until i can de-board (and even that is a nightmare!!) Then when i’m off the plane i feel such an immense relief that i tell myself ill never fly again lmao but i have a lot of trips lined up and will likely need to fly a couple times this year at least. It never gets easier. Does anyone else hate planes? How do you get through plane rides easier and make them more tolerable for yourself?
