I survived 16 & 23 hour planes rides by bringing books, magazines, and watching lots of movies offered on the planes.
I mostly tried to sleep though, luckily w/ international flights they leave @ night so you can sleep (or try toChat Icon ).
Make sure you get up & stretch your legs so they don't swell up like mine did.Chat Icon

Xanax

Books, magazines, cards, iPod, movies.
Neck pillow, slippers, those eye masks for sleeping.

Sounds like a fantastic trip - have a great time!

Re: What can you take on a LONG plane ride to keep busy?

I have been flying to Europe a lot lately for work. You must sleep on the way there! As soon as you get on the plane adjust your watch to Spain's time an start adjusting your bodies clock.
Sleep on the way there.

On the way home, I read books, watch movies & listen to music.
If Dh is with me we sometime play cards.

If you are into Suduko..bring that. It can keep you busy for a while. Also magazines and they have plenty of travel games.

Re: What can you take on a LONG plane ride to keep busy?

Set your mind to "do it in incriments" .. that's what DH and I do ... If it is an 8 hour flight, when you start to get bored say "Well, we are 5 hours in, we've over half way there, that's wasn't so bad, the rest is nothing ..." You can do anything in small incriments, right? So break up the flight figuratively.

I read Something Borrowed on my flight to Germany for my honeymoon and Something Blue on the way home. Both books were wonderful! Chat Icon
