Chris Major, a 24-year veteran flight attendant from the UK, has gained attention for his advice on long-haul flight precautions, which has been reported by international media outlets such as CNN.
According to Chris, when boarding a long-haul flight, it is better to avoid eating in-flight meals and instead try to get as much rest as possible. This will help maintain a good condition throughout the trip.
Chris recommended having a meal before boarding the plane rather than eating in-flight meals. He explained that experienced business class passengers usually sleep as soon as they board and eat before boarding the plane to manage their condition and get as much sleep as possible during the flight. He suggested airport lounges, which are available to business class passengers, as a place to have a meal before boarding.
Chris said that most airlines do not plan in-flight meal service considering passengers' jet lag and travel time, so it is more effective for long-haul flights to get as much sleep as possible instead of eating forced in-flight meals at 3 AM.
For passengers who want to eat in-flight meals, Chris advised to have breakfast provided by the airline before landing, rather than following the timing of meal service. He recommended following the body's natural rhythm instead of matching the meal service time of flight attendants.
Chris also advised to move the body frequently during long-haul flights. He emphasized that stretching is good as long as it does not harm other passengers, and the most important thing during long-haul flights is blood circulation.
For people who value sleep, Chris advised sitting by the window. Passengers who sit in aisle or middle seats should vacate their seats for those who want to use the restroom.
Chris also provided a tip for passengers who experience motion sickness, suggesting that they choose seats in the front of the plane where movement is relatively less.
In conclusion, long-haul flights can be very challenging for travelers due to jet lag, long travel times, and other factors. Chris Major's tips on how to manage one's condition during these flights by getting enough rest and avoiding in-flight meals can be helpful to passengers. For those who still want to eat in-flight meals, having a meal before boarding the plane and following their body's natural rhythm is advised. Moving the body frequently, stretching, and choosing the right seat can also contribute to a more comfortable and less challenging long-haul flight experience.
