I can only imagine this being something that anyone would not be a little exhausted from along with the travel.

I fly 150K to 200K miles a year in my regular job. Flying takes a LOT out of you. It's not just the dry air and the change in pressure, it's dealing with the logistics, security, tight schedules, luggage, etc. Driving 8 hours would be worse, I agree, but flying regularly is no picnic, either.
