Avoid alcohol - worst thing is do is drink and then sit on a long haul
flight. It dehydrates you faster and you end up feeling like cr*p at the
other end.

What? Spend a long-haul flight awake and sober? Sounds like torture...

That's why civilized (i.e. non-US) airlines are happy to give out free
drinks to (well behaved) passengers - because they know that they will soon
fall asleep and not cause any further trouble.
