The drug interaction: checker I used did not relay significant drug interactions. But, I would be concerned about becoming too sedated.

Flying is safe: Both of those meds have sedation as side effects- so you may really be zonked out on that flight. I'm not sure taking those meds is a really good idea. Remember that airline flight is the safest form of travel there is. Why not try something else to relax with? An absorbing book, a journal etc. Either one of those meds would be fine but hope u don't need them!
