Going on holiday should be fun and relaxing, so don't let a long-haul flight ruin your experience before it even begins. Even if you're stuck in economy for over 12 hours, time can pass quickly and fuss-free if you plan ahead. Do some homework on the in-flight amenities, and pack a few handy essentials such as the following, to help you survive your long-haul flight.
3. Pack some food
Long-haul flights come with meals, but they can take some time to arrive. Especially if you’re not a fan of airplane food, it’s wise to pack a few of your favourite snacks so you won’t feel hungry. Check what regulations your airline has for food on planes, but most do allow a range of non-liquid items from fruits to a real home-cooked meal of rice.
