Surviving a long-haul flight may be a mission impossible. Every activity is keeping you occupied for half an hour but time seems to have stopped. You need to be prepared and equipped properly, in order to pass the flight in an enjoyable manner. Here are five ideas to make the trip pleasant and to have fun. Make sure you get some of these in your handbag before boarding the flight.
An Interesting Audio-Book
An audio book and books on cd are a great opportunity because it provides the type of entertainment that no traditional publication is capable.
Sit comfortably, relax and begin listening to the story. You can learn something useful while travelling or you can entertain yourself with the work of a favourite author. The audio book niche is gaining more and more popularity, which signifies that the number of titles that you can choose among is increasing steadily.
Sleep Assistance
Everybody knows how uncomfortable the sleep during a flight can be. Having the right aids may actually give you a chance to have a nap instead of wondering what to do in the many hours to come.
A pillow will come in handy. You may consider some herbal remedies that increase the chance of you falling asleep. Refrain from taking pharmaceuticals to make yourself sleepy because you may have an adverse reaction to a drug.
Game Play Time
Tablets and smartphones allow you to take the games that you like the most everywhere. Make use of these new technologies during a long and boring flight.
Purchase several games right before the trip. Refrain from playing them in advanced because the new activity will probably lose its charm before you start getting ready for the trip. There are numerous inexpensive applications to choose among.
Hi-Tech Puzzles
You probably love at least one kind of puzzle. Now is the right time to have fun with it and to catch up on the activity. Hi-tech devices facilitate puzzle playing on a flight. Instead of buying crossword and sudoku magazines, you can have a large collection stored on your laptop or telephone. Puzzles are really addictive and the hours will fly without you even noticing.
Learn a Foreign Language
Travelling to a foreign country? The long flight is the perfect opportunity to learn a new language.
Audio guides or ebooks can be the right teaching aids. Start with the basic phrases. You will be surprised to find out that the flight provides enough time for you to learn various useful word combinations.
Most importantly, make sure you bring your good mood and your patience to the trip. Feeling negative about the flight will very likely get you expecting long, unpleasant hours. View it as an adventure and a new opportunity. You can spend time with yourself or you can get acquainted to your next-seat airplane neighbour. Having some fun things to do will be useful, as well. Pack your luggage accordingly.
