If you go into a vacation thinking you're going to have a bad time, you're going to have a bad time. Might as well save yourself the plane ticket and stay home.

There's not a whole lot that's fun about flying anymore, at least in coach. Between the lack of meal service, the overpriced snacks, the ever-shrinking leg room, and the endless security lines, even for those of us that really enjoy traveling, flying is always a black mark. There are a few things that I use to get through:

1) Stay constantly distracted. Buy 13 magazines, an iPod Touch, a DS, anything to keep yourself occupied.
2) Stay exhausted. I frequently will force myself to stay up all night the night before I have to fly so that as soon as I'm buckled in, I'm asleep. On my last flight cross-country, I was out before the safety announcement.
3) There is no rule anywhere that says you have to fly sober. If you have anxiety about flying that is so severe that it is impinging on your ability to enjoy your vacation, get a relaxant, prescription or otherwise. Talk to your doctor about getting some Ambien, take half of one, and fly the flight of the dreamy.

As for enjoying Mexico, what's not to like? It's 13 pesos to the dollar right now, my friend. You can go there with spare change and live like a king.
