Last year when I flew to Hawaii, I took up to 3mg or even more, I lost track, on the plane. I don't like flying, so I thought the ativan would help. I only take ativan on a prn basis, so 2mg is usually alot for me. It helped some, but not enough for me to actually relax to enjoy the flight. I thought if I just kept taking more, maybe I would fall asleep, but it didn't work. I know if I had not taken any, I would really be uncomfortable. I don't know if I have helped or not, but you will have to experiment on the flight, and it depends on how long the flight is. But I do think you should take some before you even get on the plane, that is where I screwed up. I should have taken more ativan the day before the flight and the day of the flight before I got on the plane. So take it before you fly and then if you are still really anxious, take a little more when you are the plane.
Good luck.
