I can fall asleep almost anywhere. I routinely fall asleep in the break room at work. Once, I was helping a friend fix his car, and I fell asleep on his garage floor when he went inside to get water.
But in a hot metal tube tearing through the sky, with my neck all kinked? Get out of here, man.
Hot? I’m usually cold on airplanes. That would definitely make a difference for me.
Neck pillow for the neck kinks. I don’t like the horseshoe shaped ones though, I like the trtl brand style. Expensive, but it became worth it when I took a job requiring a couple flights per month minimum.
Trtl is the only thing that has worked for me.
I had this conversation with some friends this week and we all swore that planes used to be freezing cold, but now they’re all hot. It’s crazy.
While I’m usually also freezing on the plane I noticed that Japanese Airlines cranks up the Heat during the night.
There’s such a huge difference between airlines and their post-meal temperature. BA will go into full sauna-mode. Cathay goes to freezer.
