4. Make sure to catch some zzz’s on the plane. Sleeping will help you feel more fresh.  Pack a sweater or blanket to prevent yourself from being cold so you can actually sleep.

9. Book overnight flights with no stops. When I traveled from Turkey back to LA, I had a non stop flight and arrived in the morning. I was able to sleep and rest on the flight and when I got back home, I was able to stay awake until my bed time.
