Good luck dude, I've yet to fly on a plane.
No shit?
Ive yet to get drunk on a plane. Looks like I know what Im doing in 2 weeks on my 4-5 hr flight to Wyoming.....
I love airport bars. They're expensive as hell, but just about everyone has a story, because there are no 'regulars' in airport bars. Some highlights:
Atlanta, GA:
random guy: So what are you here for?
me: I was down training our sales rep here and making a few customer visits.
guy: so you're in sales?
me: kind of. More on the technical side, but yeah, it often ends up that way.
guy: I'm in sales too. My whole life, actually.
me: So what do you sell?
guy: Hair care products. I've been helping colored people keep their curls for the last 20 years.
me: ...
St Paul/Minneapolis:
me: You look like you've been here a while, man. Miss your plane?
guy: Yeah. I'm flying to Amsterdam.
me: Oh, that sucks.
guy: Sure does. Next flight isn't til tomorrow at 3 PM, and my friends are already there, gettin' high and gettin' laid.
me: ...
Detroit, MI:
me: (overhearing a conversation between some girl and a guy missing an arm)
girl: So, uh, you're in the military?
guy: Yeah. Did two tours in Afghanistan.
girl: If you don't mind me asking, is that where you lost your arm?
guy: Yep. They let me out a year early from my contract, but I'll tell ya, it's a hell of a severance package.
Also, now most airlines have a thing where they let you swipe your credit card on the airplane to buy drinks instead of using cash. Pretty cool.

So the only complaint I had from the latest batch of chili was that I need to get a bigger slow cooker (mine's only 3 quarts). Awesome.
Bill, one guy tried it and goes, "wait...is there bacon in this? That's XXXXin' sweet."
