It was his first flight and he had been told that once he was up in the air to ease his anxiety, to order a drink to relax him into the flight.

After the first drink, he could see the value in having it. He did feel relaxed and saw around him other travellers exercising the same idea.

Staggering back to his seat he noticed the flight crew smiling, sympathetically.
