Long Airline Trip? Learn How To Stay Comfy

September 13, 2012 By Terence Nilson Leave a Comment

Purchasing a discounted
airline ticket
with a cross-country or foreign destination can be exciting.
After viewing the flight duration, this anticipation may subside. Most
travelers dread long airline trips because they envision cramped quarters,
little food, and loud passengers. Follow these tips to make a long flight more
pleasant.

When shopping for a discount
airline ticket
, look for a good seat. Not all seats are created equal, even
within a class or fare. If legroom is needed, select an aisle seat or an exit
row. A window seat is perfect for sleeping because it provides extra resting
room for the head. Avoid seats near restrooms because there tend to be long
lines near these and restrooms emit light, noise, and odors.

Pack entertainment materials because the in-flight movie may
not begin until well into the flight. Take an MP3 player, eReader, tablet
computer, or portable gaming system. Travelers who are less
technologically-inclined should pack books, magazines, and crossword puzzles.
If sleeping is on the agenda, take a travel pillow and a blanket.

Some airlines offer Audio Video On Demand, which is a great
way to get entertainment when desired. A television screen is integrated into
the back of the seat directly in front and allows the passenger to select
visual or auditory entertainment. Headphones may be available on the plane but
these are usually low-quality. Travelers who fly a lot should purchase in-ear
or noise-canceling headphones, which also block airplane engine noise.

Savings from cheap
airline tickets
is lost when too much luggage is taken on the trip. Use a
small bag or backpack, not a large rolling bag, as a carryon. Fill it with
essentials including toiletries for freshening up during the flight. Check the
airline menu and pack some food if the selections are unappealing. To find
