As a shy person who is very self conscious and needs a private environment to sleep, I just don't care about sleep on flights and stay awake for as long as possible playing video games until I reach a private space or our destination where I can sleep, as I cannot sleep in upright positions no matter what. This led me to stay awake for 36 hours and 50 hours straight on flights that I had recently with my mom. I am only 17 years old so it is easy for me to stay awake that long I guess without falling asleep. I never nap during the day as I have a fear and instinct built into me of not wanting to be seen or observed in a state of sleep or unconsciousness, so this is what I do and I am fine with that. I rather save the extra money and stay in economy class as I have a saving mentality and I don't want to waste my mom's money or my money when I get older.

Even if nobody is sitting in the other seat, you can't sleep horizontally. The only time flying Business or First really helps are on overseas flights where they get real beds.

If economy then window seat for leaning against the fuselage. I actually sleep on my side, slide down a bit on the seat and rest head against the fuselage. So curve your upper but try to have your legs straight as possible. Yes blankets on top. Headband covering eyes and ears. Then I'm okay for 4-5 hour sleep. Breath through nose so your aren't dehydrated.

Good thing the Army taught me how to sleep anywhere. I can fall asleep standing up, and I have no problem sleeping in economy class.

I find headrests very useful and feel it should be legally required on every airline seat. They can’t possibly cost that much relative to the rest of the seat.

Only afterwards can I report the actual expenses, but only to reduce the initial approved total amount to the smallest value. Anything over isn't covered except in extremely unusual circumstances. And if you're paying $1000 for a one way domestic flight, that's just wasteful spending for such a short event.

Tip - i carry a neck pillow and a back pillow both memory foam. And wear eye mask ear plugs . Put my foot on my underseat bag . Wear a hoodie. And drink lots of water . It does the trick

tldr: it's horrible unless you're travelling business and above

Last summer, I tried a ring pillow with a window seat. I was able to get some sleep. That’s my best advice. Book early and get a window seat.. Otherwise, fly during non popular times and on non popular airlines. Otherwise, go for the splurge on a low cost carrier.

I can sleep between two departure gate seats with armrests. I'm pretty proud of that, honestly.

I always take a very thin woolen scarf/ pashmina that I can roll and use as a lumbar support for my lower back - the heat and support really soothe back strain. It can also be used to support my neck and head, or as a blanket if the cabin gets cold (never happens on my flights). I find the u-shaped or inflatable neck supports are too big in diameter to be comfy for me, although if I underinflate them they can work. But flying nowadays is just awful, no matter what you do 😣

On a long haul or oceanic flight, I upgrade to first class business class everytime. Yes it’s expensive , my personal comfort is worth the added cost. Plus you get a level of pampering and dining experience you just don’t get back in economy. One key to lowering the cost of first class business class is not flying out of the United States. Take a short hop to Canada or Mexico or Latin America. Then hop on that long haul oceanic flight. You will find savings in the thousands of dollars. One more option is to have a travel points credit card. I use mine to pay for everything then I pay it off at the end of every month.

I think this is the kind of video we’re gonna watch 20 years from now and be like “wow I can’t believe people would fly like that”

Well, to me most of the positions and settings presented on this video seem too unpractical to feel comfortable. I usually pay for aisle, put something behind my ankles (like a cushioned handbag) to rest both my knees and feet to avoid knee pain for having them on the typical 90° position. And probably invest on a good neck pillow with the blanket and a blindmask to take some naps. Turbulence and flight schedules usually won't allow you to sleep though. If you could ever pay for window on a premium economy for having more leg room and therefore have 1. Free access to the toilet and 2. Head support on the wall that is 1000x better

What this taught me is I should book a seat with extra legroom for long haul flights since I like to sleep on windows but I also go to the bathroom a lot 😂

I'm not one to usually say stuff like this, but the fact that this video exists is dystopian.

I didn't really find this helpful. I kept waiting for a conclusion of the best position you can sleep in for maximizing relief on joints with the conditions we have. If that inflatable pillow only works if the person behind you doesn't recline, and the only advice is to use a well known neck pillow, while reclining... Is that really new information? The final conclusion of upgrading doesn't really help anyone in economy. I would have liked a "best of" format and more exploration on unique alternatives that are on the market.

​@@andrewwong5455 Oh of course. But how interesting! Do you remember which airline it was?

get rid of first and business class seats and give everybody more space

That only works if you’re over 6 feet tall. For 5’2” me, the headrest on planes does not adjust up or down, so my chin ends up pressed down towards my chest.

Even if almost everyone could afford and upgrade, there are not enough upgrade seats. So a lot of people will still end up in economy.

Flying more than ten hours in an economy seat is one of my worse childhood and teenagerhood memories. Even now I'm worried when I think 'flight reservations'.

Easy, you don't 😅

No choice if you're flying halfway around the world

a xanny helps to fall into a narcotic doze and the ours fly by quickly. Its propably impossible to fall to sleep by intention. I just one time really fell organicly asleep for six hours on a return flight with no seat neighbour.

If you know the person next to you, you could lay across the seats in a spooning position.

I'm 6'1", and struggle for leg room. I am also conscientious of the person behind me, not that the seats lean back far enough. The worst part is my neck.

Admirably lucid and insightful; much like a book that was both lucid and insightful in its themes. "Better Sleep Better Life" by William Brook
