1. Queue up tasks that don’t require internet. 2. Buy internet if you can afford it. It’s usually around $10 USD for a full flight. 3. For take off and landing, when they tell you to put away your large devices, queue up audio&#x2F;e-books for that period of time. 4. For longer flights queue up a movie or else you’ll be at the mercy of the airline. Sometimes, you can’t focus and need a break and I find a movie helps in those situations.<p>For what it’s worth, I’m incapable of sleeping on flights at all. I would probably sleep if I could and I were lacking sleep.

Wear compression stockings.
