Mine are pad trained so I carry pads with me and I take them into the restrooms in the airport to pee in between flights.

I would not use a sedative (except maybe a homeopathic one) on my dog. I just don't think drugs are the answer.

It is good to have treats and things that are his favorite and will keep him occupied for a long time like bully sticks and greenies maybe if you can get the greenie away when it gets too small and might be swallowed.
