That's a tough one. When I would nonrev, I always had to go out on the 6am flight, as everything else was full every day. I always worked about 3pm-midnight, so getting up at 4am and scrambling for that flight was always tough. A couple times I did just go back to sleep and skip my trip, but I went to a lot of effort with shift swaps and all for my trips, that I usually forced myself to go. Some of the most fun trips I had were those that I forced myself to the airport and slept on the plane. Of course these days getting up and flying isn't a choice, but I often disappoint myself when I plan something fun on a layover, but decide to sleep instead..........well, not really decide, more like hit a wall.
There's a whole lot of world out there to see and experience, my advice would be to sleep when you're dead!
