Get Some Peace and Quiet
Sometimes flights can get noisy, and the last thing you want to do is spend a 16-hour flight listening to a crying baby. Luckily for you, you do not have to put up with it. Pack a pair of silicone earplugs, and you’re good to go — you’ll sleep all night.

Noise-canceling headphones are a great alternative as well; they’re good for listening to your favorite music.

Quench Your Thirst
Plane air can be a nightmare, and you will become very dehydrated if you don’t watch your water intake. To battle the dry and air-conditioned air, keep taking in fluids as frequently as possible. Water is freely available on long-haul flights, so feel free to ask the flight attendants for water every hour, even if there is no food service going by.

Avoid coffee, alcohol, and anything with a lot of sugar, like the plague. These will dehydrate you even more than the air-conditioned air.
