10 Methods You Can Use During Holiday Travel To Stop Jet Lag From Making You Tired

Buy water bottle at the airport to stay hydrated during your flight. Start drinking water before your flight to keep your mind and body feeling great. 

Wear sunglasses on the plane during the hours that correspond to night time in your destination so that your eyes and mind will adjust to the correct time. 

Sitting for the duration of your flight could cause blood clots or other dangerous ailments, so make sure your take a few moments to move around the cabin and get your circulation going. 

Bring healthy familar snacks like dried fruit, nuts, raw veggies, and protein bars along with you, so that you're full and comfortable on your flight. 

Use your flight time to relax and unwind. Bring along face creams, sheet masks and relaxing essential oils so that you can have a similar routine to the one you would at home before bed. That way even if you can't sleep on the plane, you'll be in a relaxed state of mind. 

It might be tempting to take a nap right when you land, but if you want to start adjusting to local time and avoid jet lag, you shouldn't do that. Live your life as you would, if you lived there and go to bed at the appropriate time. 

If you know you're going to travel into a different time zone, always take the time to prepare by adjusting your sleep schedule to the one you'll be in. Set your sleep schedule so that it's the same as the time you'd be going to sleep in your destination and try it for two days and while you're in flight. 

The first two days of traveling can be an exciting whirlwind, but by day three, you might be feeling a little exhausted. Keep busy on your third day of travel to combat jet lag.

Instead of opting to work or play online during your flight, limit your screen time. This will make it easier to fall asleep at the appropriate time. 

Set your watch to local time right when you board the plane. This will help get you into the right mindset right when you land in your destination.
