2. Drink water

Dehydration is the first thing, which you must know during a long flight. It can lead to a weakening of the immune system. Try to refrain from overly salty foods and alcohol during the flight, which also contributes to dehydration.

3. Sleep
If you cross several time zones, it is very important to recover during the flight. If you are traveling from west to east, take sleeping pills or foods high in melatonin, and if from east to west, go to bed early on arrival. Avoid alcohol, coffee and spicy on the first day after arrival – this will help to quickly restore the schedule. Lack of quality sleep can lead to overeating. Make sure that you have at least 7-8 hours of sleep per day.

Before the flight, look at the website of the airline, what kind of food they have. Better to eat in advance before departure, so as do not be tempted by what is offered in flight and at the airport. You will have more time to sleep without being distracted by food.
