Travel Tips for long flights
Many of our international students have to take a really long flight to get to Denver. Here are top 15 tips for surviving a long flight:
- Power up. Make sure you have all your chargers with you so that you can keep all your gadgets powered up throughout your flight. Alternatively, bring extra batteries or an external charging device in case your plane doesn’t have electrical outlets
but keep in mind not all airlines allow these so make sure to double check.
- Before you board your flight, make sure that your devices (tablet, laptop, smartphone, e-reader) have enough games, movies, television shows, music, books to keep you entertained during the long flight. Also, search for the airline’s app to
download in advance for additional entertainment options.
- There are tons of different travel pillows on the market. Find out which one works for you and pack one. Also, not all airlines provide blankets so you might want to bring your own or at least some warm clothes.
- Wear comfortable clothes. The temperature on a plane is rarely comfortable for everyone. Pack some layers so that you can adjust as the temperature changes on the plane. Pack some cozy socks, too.
- Carry eye masks.
- Bring earplugs and/or noise-cancellation headphones.
- Pack anti-bacterial wipes.
- Bring a face mask.
- Bring snacks/water.
