Is It Advisable To Take Ativan While Travelling?

I am considering taking a .5 dosage of Ativan while travelling, only in the event that I feel it is needed during air travel. If I have a glass of wine prior ( or after ) taking this dosage, is that dangerous or will it be more likely to intensify the affect but not be dangerous? Obviously I wouldn t do more than that as I m not inclined to take risk and I don t generally take medication. But I tried out the .5 yesterday while still at home ( as per my doctors suggestion) and I really felt no affect at all. Thanks!
