Best long-haul airlines FAQs
How do you sleep comfortably in economy class?
Best tip on that would be to bring a comfortable travel pillow and wear comfortable and warm clothing. Temperate could drop in the air and it would be drier than normal, stay hydrated and consume less alcohol as it also dehydrates you. If you do not wish any other passengers to interrupt your sleep, it is best to choose your window seat in advance.
How do I survive a 14 hours flight?
Thai Airways has the best seat pitch on their 777-200ER with 34-inch seat pitch and 18 seat width. Oman Air has also got a seat pitch of 34 inches and 18 seat width on their A330-300.
