A Food Fun Travel Guest Post

A long flight, albeit to a paradise spot, is a tiring business. Imagine, for example, that you have to spend more than 10 hours in an uncomfortable and cramped chair. Meanwhile, every year the distance of air travel is only growing. To date, a Singapore Airlines plane has completed the longest non-stop flight from Singapore to New York in history. The liner spent 17 hours 52 minutes in the air. How to prepare for such a flight? We have collected the most practical tips on how to reschedule long flights.

Have a nap

On a long journey, sleeping is the greatest way to pass the time. While it is unusual to sleep through a full flight, it is fairly easy to cut it short by getting enough rest and sleep.

Take a sleep mask that will protect you from the light, and a comfortable pillow. And get a couple of hours of sleep.

Try to buy special sound-absorbing headphones, put them before sleep, and the noise of the motor, the rumble of hundreds of people talking, which intensifies in a limited space, will no longer interfere with your rest. If there is no way to buy headphones in advance, just use quality earplugs.

Make a self massage

On long and frequent flights, due to lack of movement and sitting in one position for a long time, back pain and muscle stiffness can occur. Fortunately, self-massage can help alleviate the effects of long flights. Try kneading – it improves blood flow, reduces muscle tension. The massage technique consists in pulling and pressing movements, i.e. first, pull the skin away from the bone, then press it back.

And upon arrival, be sure to visit a full massage session, as massage Abu Dhabi masters provide. Massage can quickly and effectively relieve the effects of a long flight and reduce the symptoms of jet lag.

Drink more water

Humidity on board drops below 20%, and to stay hydrated, buy two to three bottles of water after going through passport control and security. Avoid alcohol, coffee and tea – these drinks interfere with normal sleep and dehydrate when your body requires the opposite. Drink still water before boarding and be sure to drain the bottle before the end of the flight.

Take a skin cream

Dry air in the cabin can be very harmful to the skin. To prevent the skin from drying too much, like the earth without rain, apply a moisturizer to your face, hands, lips. If you often wear contact lenses, it is best to switch them out for glasses while flying, and don’t forget to bring hydrating drops with you. Dry air is especially bad for your eyes.

Enjoy your travel time

What to do before, after or instead of sleeping on an airplane is a question that interests many. Often passengers are entertained with films or background music, magazines are provided. Pre-download your favorite music, several films or books. To take a break from the movies, switch to another type of entertainment – read a book, a magazine, or listen to your favorite playlist(of course, with headphones). You can also play something on your phone or tablet. Take responsibility for organizing your leisure time and don’t forget to grab a power bank.

Eat properly

First, try to eat less spicy or fatty foods. This is fraught with unpleasant consequences. Such food will cause thirst, and excessive fluid intake will quickly lead to swelling. Secondly, eat fresh fruits or vegetables, dry biscuits, and fitness bars. They will not cause a feeling of overeating and heaviness in the stomach.

During a long flight, passengers are fed at least twice, not counting small snacks. Drink clean water, don’t drink too many sweet carbonated drinks, coffee, or alcohol. They can cause nausea, and excess alcohol can cause dehydration, headaches, and even nosebleeds, which will make it difficult to quickly recover after the flight.

Charter a Private Flight

Chartering a private jet is the luxurious way to survive a long plane trip. Once aboard a private jet, you’ll have delicious food, more space to move around, and a flight attendant just for you. Private jets from chartright offer numerous features and amenities like luxurious lounges, pet accommodation, full-size bathrooms, etc. Your travel experience is completely tailored to meet your unique needs and provide a comfortable and relaxing flight.

Wrap up

These are the basic rules of conduct on board an aircraft making a long non-stop flight. With their observance, even the longest flight will not be so long and tiring.
