I'm a pretty heavy smoker, but I really dont usually think of them on a plane and if I do there isn't much you can do about it so you soon forget.
A friend of mine takes one of the nicotinelle (or what ever they are called) sucky things so he still gets his nicotine hit. Personally wouldn't want to be seen with a fake fag but if your really worried take one and if you feel the need you can give it a go.

Re: Ciggies
I am about to become an ex smoker today, but i find that whenever i travel on a plane the thought have having one never enters my head. For some reason, because i know it just isnt gonna happen i dont want one. I shall be dwelling on this point a lot in the next few weeks to help me stop the habit. Its all psychological. If i can sit for 12hrs on a plane and not want one, why cant i sit in my car, house, pub and back yard and not want one? ... all in the mind.

Re: Ciggies
I have always found that the 24 hr patch works fine for me, the last thing you want on a plane is too lose your rag because you can't have a ciggie. Trust me I travelled to Oz this year with a 3 year old and the patch kept me very calm.
Mind you couldn't wait to find the smokers room in Dubai Airport.
Crazy, when you know you can't have one you except it, when you think there is the slightest possibility I am a woman possessed. The worst thing was when the toddler insisted on coming to the smoking room with me, then I was beginning to lose my cool. Bless her.
Podgypossum good luck. This is something I am seriously thinking about. I know it is so antisocial these days, why do we bother.

I went for those inhaling things, still got them in the house. On landing at Singapore, the plan was late and was being turned around in 30mins for onward flight to Sydney. Just had enough time to run the length of the airport and find the outside smoking area and then run back...
