replying to @united @united A9 Book a window seat, always use a mask and earplugs, and listen to soft music. Also let the FA/your seatmates know you don’t want food. #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A8: A mega-sized water bottle to stay hydrated. Extra portable batteries (in case the in-seat power doesn’t work). Earplugs, eyeshades, disinfecting wipes for the seat, nasal spray and eye drops. All part of my inflight routine. #travelskills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A9. Lay off the alcohol. You might think that glass of 🍷 helps you sleep but it just dehydrates you #TravelSkills

A9 If you have trouble sleeping, bring your own pillow, blanket and comfy clothes to help you feel more relaxed. #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united TIP Keep your valuables in a safe place when you sleep on long flights. Either have them locked up in a bag or keep them on you. #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united A9 Try to book a window seat in economy. You can lean against the wall and won’t get bumped by flight attendants or passengers. #TravelSkills

A9 Noise cancelling earbuds playing soft sleep music, eye mask, your own scarf or sweater and Tylenol PM #TravelSkills

A9: Well, if it’s a VERY long flight it should just come naturally. Anything less than 10 hours though and I can’t usually sleep so I just watch movies lol #travelskills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A9: Show up to your flight after a decent amount of walking or excercise or show up tired. Getting sleep through natural methods is far healthier and better for you than using medication to induce sleep. #Travelskills

replying to @SmarterTravel @SmarterTravel I wish I could sleep sitting up. Impossible. Most I can do is doze #TravelSkills

replying to @united @united TIP Beware that non-U.S. carriers tend to keep their cabins much warmer than U.S. carriers do. Right, @DailyTravelTips? I always ask them to turn down the temp! #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills I've tried almost everything and nothing works very well for me. Tried melatonin once and it kept me WIDE AWAKE for hours. #travelskills

replying to @JimByersTravel @JimByersTravel I always find I am bloated and feel heavier after eating plane food. Even in business class it just feels to rich and salty #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis A9: I used to get as high as possible before a flight, but security theatre is weird, so I don't do that anymore. Oh, and I'm old. Still, the medication I have to take usually just knocks me out. Earbuds and an eye mask also helps. #TravelSkills

A9 Can’t sleep on flights no matter what? Bring a guide book and use the time to plan or check out the travel section on the United Hub. https://t.co/brr9ud5uw7 #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A9 Too bad eating more desserts wouldn't help. 😋 I'd say use a meditation app and some melatonin. #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis A6: Bottled water and enough space to stroll atound the plane and break up my sitting. I bring everything else I need. #TravelSkills
