Long haul or international flights can be tiresome no matter the level of entertainment on board.Even if one flies in First class, he still needs to be aware that his body will not remain same as before the flight.
The key to keeping healthy during a long flight is to regularly stretch your legs and drink lots of water, so say travel experts.
Also, try to hydrate your skin with a spritzer spray – you can make your own using distilled water added with eight to ten drops of an essential oil such as lavender or bergamot and put in a spritzer bottle. Some airlines have fantastic pharmacy kits that contain essential supplies for the frequent or long haul flyer. It is a mixture of homeopathic remedies, flower essences and oils to soothe and support the body and mind.
Travel experts have also recommended holistic silk massaging slippers and lavender eye masks (even for short haul flights). The slippers are great for flights as they have magnetic insoles that help with circulation and massage your feet. But if your flight is not too early, try and do some stretching before you go to the airport so your body does not feel knotted and tight during the flight.
There are several airline companies that are offering various relaxation services for those who are flying regionally, domestically, and even internationally.
