But somehow, I can't seem to get comfortable enough
to get to sleep. I'm 6'3" 280 lbs, and the tiny
seats are -very- uncomfortable after a few hours.
(can't afford 1st class)

There is simply no way a 6' 3" guy is going to be able to sleep for more
than 30 minutes on a modern airliner. They are not designed for comfort,
and you will cripple yourself trying.

Even if you take a sedative, or a few stiff drinks, you will awaken with
such a crick in your neck that you'll wish you hadn't slept at all.

It's a sad fact of modern airlines, but they're just not interested in your
comfort.
