Sleeping At 35,000 Feet
Cheap airplane tickets and cheap vacation packages are usually the most affordable way for most people to travel. Unfortunately sleeping while flying can be challenging.
Fliers often have to deal with other passengers talking, crying children, engine noise, overzealous flight attendants, and intermittent updates from the captain.
The follows are recommendations from CNN’s Business Traveller on how to attain some elusive shut eye while flying:
• Take control of your environment in the air and make it as comfortable and conducive to sleeping as possible. Wear layered clothes so that you can easily adjust what you are wearing to the cabin temperature.
• If rest is your goal, listening to music or an audio book is much better than watching video. The blue lights of videos are known to negatively impact the quality of sleep.
• Make the most of the space around you by leaning forward instead of back. Many people have found it easier to sleep on tray tables.
• Pack whatever will make you more comfortable while on the plane, such as blankets and pillows, in your carry-on to ensure ...
... their availability and cleanliness. Earplugs, eye masks and neck supports also help make many a traveler be more relaxed.
• Keep well hydrated while in the air. This helps make sleep easier. Avoid drinking much alcohol or you will end up dehydrated and find it difficult to go into deeper realms of sleep. Stay away from sugary food since it acts as a stimulant.
• As a last resort, consider trying a sleeping aid. Sleeping pills sometimes do the trick. Natural remedies such as magnesium are also good.
