Look into going by train if its at all possible. Traveling by train is like spending the day in the park. Everyone is relaxed, casually walking around meeting and talking to people. Seats are huge and comfortable and there's usually plenty of empty ones around. There's enough cargo space to carry-on a damn motorcycle. You can even get off and go for a 10 minute walk outside, about every hour if you'd like (big deal for smokers). Free parking. Heavy-duty climate controls keeps it more comfortable than your house. Almost no lines or security checks. Good chance of electrical outlets at your seat. No problem bringing a big cooler full of your own food & drinks. Plenty of big bathrooms. Extremely quiet and smooth ride, without the ear-destroying whining of turbines. And none of the sudden acceleration, altitude changes, banking turns, high and low G-forces, etc., you get when flying. In fact much less sense of motion than riding in a car or a bus. Instead of being the worst part of your trip that people just tolerate, it's one of the high-points you'll look forward to.
I remember reading marriage advice from a very elderly married couple who said that one of the secrets to their success was that they each had parts of their lives that were separate.

Just....no.
