Never do these in an Airplane

There are obvious things not to do on a plane or anywhere if you want to be the odd person in the place. Here we put together best practices when you are flying.

1. Sleeping through takeoff or landing

If you ever flown before then you have experience the air pressure around you changes. Sometimes your ears hurts for a while until the fight lands or once its in the air. If you sleep during this process then you will feel the pain more. What you need to do is adjust the pressure rather than sleep.

You can chew a gum, suck on lollies or even yawn. If not this could lead to an eardrum damage, infection or a slight hearing loss.

2. Sleeping in the flight when its day time at your landing destination 

You will find it difficult to adjust to the time zone if you sleep through out the flight. Adjust your watch to match the time in your landing destination as you board the flight. Then match the activities to the time.

3. Walking around barefoot

It feels good to walk around barefoot in the flight and specially if it’s a long one. However its not recommended and if you ask a flight attendant they will tell you not to do so. The carpets are full of leftover food and all kind of garbage.

4. Not having enough liquids

Your body loses moisture at high altitudes and in side flights as the air is so dry. Drink lot of liquids and do not ever turn down a refill when its offered.

5. Avoid Alcohol

Better avoid alcohol while flying as it will dehydrate you and cam mess with your sleep quality. Also you might have a hangover that makes your journey irritable.

6. Gulping tea and coffee

The tea and coffee made inside the planes cannot be very hygienic. The attendants use the tap water available in the plane. This water contains coliform. For some of you the bacteria can mess with your immune system. Stick to bottle water, fruit juice.

7. Don’t eat food once it falls on your tray

Even though the ground staff cleans the trays, you will never know how well they clean. Transit flights do not get enough time to so it’s always better to leave the food if it falls on the table.

If you are traveling with kids the trip might be bit of a struggle. It’s not easy to travel with kids. But those are experiences you had with your children, which would be beautiful memories. Check this blog post here on traveling with your kids.
