I have a very strong circadian rhythm, and it’s too hard for me to switch up sleeping times, so I take the cold turkey approach; I always tske an evening flightvto Europe, amd then force myself to stay awake on the flight. We usually arrive at our destination in the morning and the excitement of being in new or beloved places always gets me through the first day, then I sleep like a baby all night and wake up on local time. Coming home, we usually arrive early evening, and again, I just stay awake in the plane, so by the time we are actually home, I fall asleep easily. I have far worse trouble going between time zones here in the US than I do internationally.

is a lot easier. But I don’t eat the food on the plane. Even before business class was developed, we were in first class, but there were seats, not flat beds. Followed same rule until breakfast when all I wanted was yogurt and tea. I do the same thing now.
Gerry and I got quite a laugh when breakfast going over one time they offered croissants. I decided I could wait another day. But the best idea is to drink lots of water. There is a slight downside…, but it does help. And get up and stretch and go for a little walk.And wear compression socks.
It’s nice to compare notes. And I’m always ready for whatever weather is in the forecast.

Can I say for those of you in USA whichever coast, West or East flying to Europe is easy.. our flights range from 20-24 hours. And the product I have used all my life.. now over 40 years… when Head of Business at The Australian Ballet, Buyer for Department store, and Musician, speaker , “one woman show” is a fab NZ product that has been around for years and still is “Jet Ease”. It’s a homeopathic product, small tablets that dissolve in your mouth. Take them a couple of hours before the plane gets off the ground and a couple of hours after you land … to be honest have never had jet lag… have a few good vinos and eat great food. We Kiwis and Aussies have to travel long distances so we make sure that all is well when we arrive. Sally xx

You should be good if you go in the first couple of weeks in April. Check next to Notre Dame. They last around two weeks and they haven’t started yet.
