I'd mix and match. Klonopin is great for long-lasting anxiety relief, and it reduces the amount of xanax you'll need for sleep, since you'll be partially sedated anyway. Sooo, my advice would be klonopin 1-2 hours before boarding (so it'll start to peak during flight) and then however much xanax you need for a midlength nap (I don't know your tolerance level, so its hard to make recommendations on dosage). If you can get a quickie Rx, Sonata's good for inflight sleep. Its Ambien-esque, but with shorter half-life, so you can wake up clear-headed and bright eyed after 3-4 hours...with ambien, it would take 7 hrs + to wake up clear headed.
