Rituals
Thinking about upcoming flight - does anyone have any particular superstitions or rituals before or during a flight.
I wear green socks and make sure I overdose on nicotine.
I'm not scared of flying (in fact love it, especially the take-off and landing), just like socks, green and smoking.

Oh, and wear green socks
