A8. Wouldn’t mind having a long-haul flight from @FlySFO to #Perth. Would love to visit, but dread getting on a 5-hour flight after a 13-hour one. #travelskills (Photo: @MargoPF)

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A7: stay up as long as possible when I land. Just got back from Switzerland where I spent no time jet lagged because I kept busy the day I arrived and stayed up until 9 pm. From then on I was almost exactly on my home schedule #TravelSkills

A7: if anyone HAS a secret remedy for #jetlag, SPILL IT! I find coming home much worse than going over. #TravelSkills @Australia

replying to @Australia @Australia TIP Sometimes it can be cheaper to buy a round-the-world ticket than to go from point A to point B. Always price them out. #TravelSkills

replying to @Australia @Australia A8 Always surprising to me that SFO does not have a non-stop to Rome. This year, it got non-stops to Milan, tho on @air_italy_. #TravelSkills

A8. Los Angeles to Perth? Such an underrated city in Australia. #TravelSkills @travelskills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet @Australia Lol I set multiple alarms in the mornings too! I’m such a deep sleeper #TravelSkills

A8 If I could have any two cities connected by a long-haul flight, it would be my hometown (undisclosed) and #Portofino. But that would involve building an airport at Portofino, which might detract from its charm somewhat. #TravelSkills

A7. I was asked to try Voke Tabs after my last overseas trip. I'm firmly (and sadly) in the jet leg denial group but it worked! I'm not even going to add their url (this isn't an ad)--it worked! #TravelSkills

That would be amazing. Also, add DC please :) #EveryoneForgetsAboutUs #Travelskills https://t.co/79nF7Nmjth

replying to @laurenrambles @laurenrambles @Australia Thanks! I sometimes take a nap on a park bench so I won't go into a deep sleep. #TravelSkills

A5: We generally prefer a long flight (getting off and on planes can be a pain) but with kids sometimes it's easier to break up the flight time. #Travelskills

replying to @LandLopers @LandLopers I * SO * want a TARDIS. It'd solve so many travel problems, especially the baggage problem #travelskills
StopJetLag
A7 #TravelSkills Did you know that the secret to consistently beating #jetlag is to correctly time all of the naturally occurring jet lag influences with your flight schedules?

A7: I listen to my body. If tired I get to my room ( usually pre-arranged to checkin early or late) shower, unpack, #nap or go out. Usually looking for #soup that first night. I have some great soup stories! #TravelSkills @Australia #mushroomsoup
Travel_Session
A7- If I have it in me, I try to stay up the night before a long flight and wait until they cut the lights off and down the window shades to sleep. It works in theory, but there have been plenty of times I'm asleep before takeoff #travelskills #travelingsession
KirstenAlana
replying to @katrinawoz @katrinawoz @travelskills For me it actually is. My body is in too much pain to be able to sleep unless I am laying down. I've tried everything under the sun to change it. #TravelSkills

replying to @GingerandCarrie @GingerandCarrie Great advice! I tried to do that while still on the plane going to Thailand once. Everyone was noisy while I was trying to sleep & flight attendants yelled at me for opening the shade when I woke since others were sleeping. Sometimes you just go with the flow. #travelskills

replying to @Gasmangaz @Gasmangaz @travelskills Yes! ⏰ Stay awake upon arrival, get some exercise, & don't go to bed until the locals do. I cheat on that in Spain. :-) #TravelSkills

replying to @guttersniper @guttersniper @ShermansTravel Yup. I slept on the floor of a train station -- Cleveland? Can't remember. Nasty but necessary at the time (and WAS adult.) #travelskills

#travel Australia: travelskills TIP Australia is an expansive country with plenty of iconic destinations to visit. Getting to each of them can seem intimidating, but it’s easier than you might think! Set off today and you could wake up Down Under tomorrow morning. #TravelSkills

#travel Australia: travelskills TIP Thanks to increasingly affordable plane fares and a wide range of flights from the US, we are no longer a “once-in-a-lifetime” destination. Many Americans return again and again. There is much to explore! #TravelSkills
fabionodariph
#travel Australia: travelskills TIP There are nonstop flights from North America’s West Coast to Australia’s East Coast. If you’re travelling from other cities across America there are easy and convenient layover options to get you Down Under in no time. #TravelSkills
