Recommendations for comfortable cotton travel trousers for a long-haul flight

I will be flying long haul in a couple of weeks. I'd quite like some trousers like these: https://www.next.co.uk/style/sv028610/g96864 on the basis of elasticated waist but bit better than some trackies and I can wear with a nice jumper.

BUT.... a fun not at all fun little side effect of being 50 is that I'm a bit twitchy about fabric. And I'm worried that on a plane, I'll get sweaty or uncomfortable.

Can anyone recommend similar sorts of trousers but ideally in a proper cotton or non-synthetic material that won't make me a sweaty disgusting mess before we've even taken off?

Ive used Laundry B quite a lot for trousers. I find them really comfortable and plenty of 100% cotton options.

Next barrel leg linen mix trousers. In black. Smart enough, but with an elasticated waist, they don't crinkle because they are a blended fabric. They go with everything as well, any shoe, any top..
