Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't.
---

Almost always. I sleep easier on planes actually, despite it being uncomfortable for me. I guess I'd have to be tired to begin with though
---

when I was a kid I could. but I haven't been able to fall asleep on a flight in like 20 years or more. it sucked when I flew to China. such a long boring flight. tried to sleep a bunch of times

Other: Yes, but I don't always fall asleep, or try to. I've never been on a flight longer than 3-4 hours.
---

Long flights, yes. The handful of times I had to do transatlantic flights, I definitely got some sleep on the plane.

Shorter flights not so much.
---

I'm always asleep at some point in a flight. There was one that I fell asleep sitting on the tarmac (plane hadn't even reached the runway yet), and when I opened my eyes we were a thousand feet in the air. Slept right through takeoff. Which I was ticked about, because I always like watching as the plane takes off. One of the reasons I always take a window seat. And since I did miss takeoff, and then the plane flew over cloud cover so I couldn't see the ground, I just went back to sleep.
---

I wouldn't know as I've never flown on a plane but given the fact I'm a light sleeper and find it really hard sleeping outside of environments I'm not used to the chances are I wouldn't be able to.
---

I sometimes do. Sometimes don't. But I can and flight length doesn't mater.

Unlikely. I so seldom fly that every time has been an experience.
---

10 hour flight to america at the end of the year, hoping to sleep for most of it to be honest.

I haven't been on a plane in almost 20 years, I was able to sleep back then. I don't know if I could now though.
---

Definitely.
---

I can't even sleep in my own bed. Well, I can, but it generally takes at least two hours.
---

Never been on a plane but I can guarantee the when I do I won't even bother trying to sleep.
---

Also it depends on how many mother fucking snakes are on this mother fucking plane.
---

If I'm tired I can sleep just fine.
---

I slept on the way to Japan and England. Both are nine hour flights from my home province. Kinda shows you how big the country is when flying east, and how big the Pacific Ocean is when flying west.

The longest flight I've been on is about 90 minutes, so I've never tried
---

No I can really only sleep in a dark quiet place sadly.
---

Don't know, as I've never been on one long enough for that to matter (and it's been quite some time since I've last been on a plane)
---

No but I have only ever been on a 2 hour flight.

It might have been a bit longer. One was from St. Louis to San Antonio, Texas and back (I have some relatives that lived near there) then another from Nashville, Tenisssee to San Antonio then back. Then back in 2006 when my little sister, my little brother, my parents, and I went from St. Louis to Phoenix Arizona and back. Haven't flown since then.
---

I got so jealous of those people that just get on a plane and pass out. Sooooooooooo jealous.
---

D. At most, I'll doze briefly. I didn't sleep one wink when I flew to Amsterdam.
---

Almost never sleep on planes.

The problem I have is that the seats don't go back far enough so my neck is not in a position that is comfortable for sleeping.
---

Yea, it is basically like narcolepsy for me. I get in a plane seat, put on my seat belt and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....
---

You can sleep on planes, yes.
---

Other. I usually try and use the flight time to get caught up on my reading or 3DS games but more often than not I tend to just fall asleep. My shortest flight was maybe 30-50 minutes and I was awake throughout that.
---

I'm 6'3 and broad shouldered.

So no.

Also I'm not really comfortable sleeping around a buncha randos. At any moment, one of them could draw a penis on my face.
---

I've had brief naps, like 30 minutes at most. This was especially brutal on a red eye from the west coast over the Atlantic...
---

The last time i was sleeping, they dragged me off the seat and dropped me on the floor and they took me off the plane.
---

I don't sleep in places like that. Not in planes or trains or busses. Maybe if I'm traveling with people I know but heck no to doing so solo.

I know how you feel, my flight to Europe 2 years ago i had a weird Swedish,or Swiss guy (forget which, just know it was one of the S European countries)

Though my flight back it was a cute girl from Regina.

A bus or some sort of public transit train? No. I wouldn't sleep there either. Too many stops with people coming and going all the time. But on a plane or a long distance train where everyone is pretty much stuck until the final destination? I'm fine with that. They can't rob me and be gone before I wake up and notice.
