Tips

To prepare yourself for the day you arrive at your destination, you'll want to get plenty of sleep, which can be difficult to achieve on a plane. Here are some tips and tricks for your red eye flight to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling well-rested and full of energy.

Comfortable Clothing

On your way to a business meeting? Leave your smart wear in your case and fly in loose clothing, or anything you feel most comfortable in - this could include a t-shirt, hoodie, sweatpants or shorts. You'll be asleep in no time!

Accessories

We recommend bringing a sleep mask, a warm blanket or a travel pillow with you to help you fall asleep faster and get the rest you need.

Seating

Everyone hates being interrupted while sleeping - this is why booking a window seat is a great idea and will reduce the risk of other passengers potentially waking you up if they need to squeeze past you. You'll even have control over the window shutters, so you won't be woken up by the sunrise.
