Comfortable flight: how to fall asleep on an airplane

Unfortunately, we have to travel long distances on airplanes. We tell you how to fall asleep to make the flight more comfortable.

 

Flight preparation

In a flight, the dry air causes fast dehydration, which in turn causes sleeplessness. Bring a bottle of water with you; the half-glass provided in the cabin won't hold you back. Better still, two. and consume more alcohol prior to takeoff. Make sure you eat—ideally, vegetables—because, in the first place, you will still have to wait and, in the second place, you won't be able to go asleep right away.
 

Remember to wear comfortable clothing that won't restrict your movement on lengthy trips. Bring warm socks with you because it's common for your feet to get cold on an airplane, which keeps you from sleeping.
 

 

The key, though, is that basic exhaustion will help you go asleep without the need for further simulators. A few days before to the travel, begin rising early and engaging in physical activity.

Remember to use "sleepy" accessories like an inflatable pillow beneath your neck, earplugs, and an eye mask—unless you want to wake up on your neighbor's shoulder and with a backache, of course.
 

Place selection

Select a window seat to ensure that you have a little more room than your neighbors. Nobody will wake you up to take you for a stroll around the cabin either. You can utilize a pillow for maximum comfort.

This is the worst location to sleep, forget about the last row. Not only that, but these seats in the majority of airline models do not recline, meaning you will be forced to listen to talks in the bathroom line for the duration of the flight.
 

The first rows, where most families with young children sit, are not the ones you should choose, though.
 

During the flight

It will be simpler to fall asleep if you ask the stewards for a blanket. Alternately, pack a "heavier" sweatshirt so you can cover up. As a result, the blanket will make you feel calm and cozy as you sleep, which will reduce your anxiety.
 

Recall that the blue screen on your smartphone reduces the release of melatonin, the "darkness hormone," and modifies your circadian rhythm, acting as a "Red Bull" for your eyes. This can be prevented with a screen protector. Take WaveWall Sleep, which is compatible with both Apple and Android smartphones. You can use your mobile device safely until sunrise by using the film as a filter to prevent light-emitting diodes, which are the source of light in the blue section of the spectrum.

 

Try lying down on a chair if everything else fails. Your body enters an energy-saving mode when you lean forward, which decreases your heart rate. Should you find these motions excessively dramatic, consider placing your elbows on your knees and taking calm, deep breaths; the result will be the same.
