If my experience at airports / on air planes is any indication, best tip I have is... don't.

Chug water before your flight, and do you best to board with a full bottle that you keep chugging during the flight. It keeps swelling down.
I used to be a window seat gal, but now I specifically get an aisle seat for any flight over three hours. That way I don't have to bother waking anyone up if I have to pee.
If you hit some scary turbulence, just remember that planes withstand them. It feels scary, but the danger is due to bags or people that weren't strapped in flying about. So, grip your armrest, imagine you're on a rollercoaster and enjoy the ride.
Noise cancelling headphones.
Don't fly because airports have some kind of secret knowledge that they keep from us ordinary folk. Why do you think they call it "TERMINAL" parking? It's like they can't resist throwing it in our faces.
I think you may be on to something
