Hi Gerbil, I flew from St. Louis to Germany in June and it went well. I had to change flights in New Jersey and it was a long trip, including a two hour drive to the airport. I didn't get any sleep and usually suffer from ear pressure, but overall the jetlag was not any worse than before PCS. On the way home I got stuck in New Jersey and had to spent the night in a hotel. I got a little mixed up with the local time when I set my alarm and got to the airport an hour early the next morning. No big deal - better early than late, ha. So you really shouldn't worry about getting on a plane again - you will be fine and if you can select your seat, try to get as far away from the engines as possible.
