  • How to Get Some Sleep on Your Flight

  • - If you are flying a red-eye (overnight) flight, and the plane is not too full, you can usually move around to a seat that has vacant seats on both sides and then you can stretch out for a nice sleep. But note that you are required to keep a seatbelt on and visible. If you are on a red-eye flight and cannot find 3 vacant seats, you still can get some sleep if you have those neck pillows that go around your neck - they keep your head from falling over and waking you up.

  • Identify Your Bags as Fragile

  • - When you first arrive at the check-in counter, request that your bags be deemed 'fragile'; this will keep them at the top of the pile and they will be among the first to come out in the baggage claim!

  • Inflatable Travel Pillow

  • - In preparation for long flights, purchase an inflatable travel pillow (Walgreen's has them) to keep your neck positioned and supported. The U-shape helps maintain your neck's natural cervical curve. It can be used back home, too, while watching TV or snoozing in the recliner!

  • Jet Lag Rule: One Hour Equals One Day

  • - Every time you enter a new time zone, you should plan on one day to adjust to the difference. One hour causes minimal disruption to your internal time clock. However, crossing six zones will likely require six days of adjustment. Take this into consideration when you travel. Do not plan a hectic day of tours or meetings after a long flight spanning several time zones.

  • Keep Hydrated

  • - For those travelling on a long flight, be sure to drink lots of water 2 days before, and no caffeine (or little caffeine) during the flight. This will help your body accustom to the air pressure and jet lag. Ask for fruit on the flight and try to limit salt intake.
