Any tips for surviving long plane flights?

Question

I am moving to Texas from Australia...the flight plan we have chosen involves 30hours of flying time! Looking for any suggestions on how to survive...I'm 15

Answer 1

Books, video games, cards, puzzle books.  One of the best ways to kill time is to sleep!  However, since I can't sleep on the plane, striking up conversations with other passengers helps to make the time go quicker.  It's interesting to hear where they're going and why.

Answer 4

Wow you picked the really long run. It didn't take us that long to get from Asia to the US, you must have several layovers.   If you are going through Japan you must go through security there so that can take some time.  

Take a book or two or several magazines or puzzle books.  A nice pair of headphones of your own, iPod or MP3 player if you have. Nintendo or whatever game system usually helps as well.   Usually the movies are decent but check with the airline to get an idea of what is on, it should be on the webpage.  Even take a portable DVD player and your own movies.  Wear comfortable clothes, pack a few extra cloths in your bag, along with some toothpaste & toothbrush, wet wipes, comb, etc... That way you can freshen up at an airport or on the plane.  Check with the airline if there is certain foods you want to eat.
