FYI<br />
WORK & PLAY<br />
There is no better time<br />
than to get stuck into<br />
some neglected work. It<br />
definitely is not advisable<br />
to be a workaholic on your<br />
holiday, however when<br />
you are on a flight, this is the time where<br />
you have lots of time to kill and no calls or<br />
emails to answer to. You can finally<br />
be productive! If you are not feeling<br />
up for work, take out that novel<br />
you have been meaning to read<br />
or perhaps spend some time on a<br />
crossword puzzle or sudoku. Plug in<br />
your earphones and time will fly (pun<br />
not intended).<br />
“Many people get<br />
frustrated when<br />
trying to find the<br />
right position to<br />
sleep”<br />
EAT RIGHT<br />
Airplane food<br />
is known to be<br />
bland. Choose the<br />
right meals and<br />
you will find that<br />
not only is your<br />
appetite boosted, but also your mood!<br />
When picking your inflight meals, choose<br />
something rich in flavour such as curry<br />
or spices. Dishes with lemon, mustard or<br />
vinegar are a great pick-me-up as well.<br />
Avoid dishes like pasta or rice as they can<br />
get mushy and dull especially when they<br />
have gone cold. Enjoy a glass or two of<br />
red wine or a cocktail like a Bloody Mary,<br />
it’ll help to bring out the flavours of your<br />
food. Remember to steer clear of anything<br />
that is known to upset your stomach or<br />
that you are allergic to.<br />
SEAT GUIDE<br />
Use SeatGuru (www.seatguru.com) to<br />
help you pick the perfect seat. Everyone<br />
has different preferences - some prefer<br />
aisle seats while some prefer snuggling<br />
up against the window. SeatGuru will<br />
conveniently and efficiently give you<br />
a detailed seating chart of your flight.<br />
They will also advise you which seats<br />
have more legroom by using a colour chart. Other<br />
tips such as which seats are closer to restrooms<br />
or which may have more noise traffic are also<br />
available to help you make your decision.<br />
SLEEP WISELY<br />
If you did not have the chance to upgrade your flight<br />
and you are stuck with the tight economy seats,<br />
make sure you sleep in a good position. Many people<br />
get frustrated when trying to find the right position<br />
to sleep in and end up resulting in folding over and<br />
resting on the foldable table. This is something you<br />
should definitely avoid as it puts more pressure on<br />
your back bone, causing a strain which will lead<br />
to back pains. If you have a pillow or<br />
blanket, pop it in the gap between<br />
your lower back and your seat.<br />
This will help give you support<br />
and you will feel more rested in<br />
the long run.<br />
