  It's just been my experience that drinking on airplanes has an adverse effect on productivity in the air and then once on the ground. Let's say you take a flight from SF to Chicago or NYC. You have a couple of drinks on the plane so then you end up getting no real work done on the plane and not even thinking clear enough to get head-work done on the plane. Then when you land, you don't go workout nor do you do any work, so the night is basically shot. And you are more prone to also say, ok i had a couple already today so let's have another one, and then the next morning might even be a rough one. I've also found this especially true for flights from NYC to London. There's nothing worse than landing after a red-eye and a few drinks. It makes the red-eye jetlag so much wose. The best way for me to hop across the pond is to immediately hit the gym upon arrival.
