nehhhh not true at all! you have different sorts of coupes, I was in a sort of private one (two beds), it was really easy to do. Yes if you are 2.10 meter, its more annoying, but I guess every bed is annoying for you then hahaha.
But there are also like public coupes, where everybody sleeps like in a major dorm, those are kinda stinky and not very safe for your stuff, so Id pay the extra bit (it wasnt THAT much more expensive)
Yeah the flying to start with was smart, because then you dont have to worry about it anymore and you can just enjoy the rest of the trip :))
Ah, that is a relief! I'd also go for the more luxurious option :) I had my private "bedroom" on the Amtrak too. Was a lot more expensive, but it's a vacation so you shouldn't kill yourself over an upgrade.
Do you notice that flying becomes easier after you have done it a few times?
It does get easier...
living on an island makes you fly a lot to be honest.
sometimes i still freak out for no reason at all on a flight, and some flight are like im sitting in the bus. dont know why that is
and dormicum, on long flights i take dormicum, it makes you forget stuff, and makes you fall asleep.. winning!
I now only get nervous when landing in bad weather. But that took me about 100 flights, I think ;) I tried chill pills once and they made me feel even worse. Glad they work for you!!
