We have all had those long, tiring flights that we thought would never end.\u00a0 Once, I flew from JFK<\/a> to Mumbai<\/a> India<\/a> and I thought the flight would never end.\u00a0 My experience in India was awesome, but the airplane ride there was not.\u00a0 Luckily, I have a few tips to share with you to help make your airplane ride easier.<\/p>\n

Noise canceling headphones<\/strong> – I never travel on a plane without these.\u00a0 I bought a pair before my trip to India, and they were a life-saver.\u00a0 They block out the noise of the plane and you can listen to music, the in-flight video or simply nap.
\nComfortable clothing<\/strong> – Another must.\u00a0 Comfy clothing can make long, drawn out flights much easier to endure.\u00a0 Your favorite sweater, sweatshirt, or blanket is great if you get cold on the flight.\u00a0 Hunker down and maybe you can get a quick 40 winks while you wait for touch down.
\nA pillow or neck rest – <\/strong>Airlines are now charging for pillows and blankets, but you can beat the system by bringing your own.\u00a0 You can even bring an inflatable neck rest, which saves space in your carry-on luggage.\u00a0 You can use the pillow or neck rest to put in the small of your back if it begins to ache.\u00a0 Remember, on those long flights stretch your legs to prevent blood clots.
\nBottles of water<\/strong> – Experts say to drink a bottle of water for every three hours you are on the plane.
\nRead – <\/strong>I take a book or two with me.\u00a0 I am a voracious reader and on long flights can read over a book. I like to take a books that can stretch my imagination. I get so enthralled in my book that time “flies” by quickly.
\nBring your imagination<\/strong> – I tend to weave fantastic stories about my fellow travelers, where they are going, what they do, etc.<\/p>\n

The best tip is to start your trip refreshed and not tired.\u00a0 Try to get a good night’s sleep before.\u00a0 Your patience will be longer, and perhaps the annoying things won’t set you off as soon.\u00a0 If you have a long drive to the airport, stay the night before.\u00a0 Use ParkSleepFly.com<\/a> to select a great rate for a hotel room and parking package.\u00a0 Park Sleep and Fly packages are at all major airports, and parking is always included in the package.\u00a0 When calculating the cost, it is comparable to parking directly on the airport grounds.\u00a0 Head out refreshed and ready to meet the challenges that all travelers face.\u00a0 Don’t miss your flight, stay overnight!<\/a><\/p>\n

These are just a few tips.\u00a0 If you have some that make your flight more enjoyable, please let me know.\u00a0 I’m always looking to squelch the boredom of flights!<\/p>\n
