Or can&#8217;t decide between window and aisle? A recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelandleisure.com\/travel-tips\/why-you-should-choose-window-seat-during-flu-season\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">study<\/a> highlights the window seat as our best pick to avoid catching the flu (and other infections) on the plane. \u201cContacts\u201d with other passengers were counted during a sample flight: the aisle seat had 64 contacts, the middle had 58 and the window seat travellers had only 12. Furthest from the busy aisle and with only one person by your side, we recommend keeping safe (and cosy) here. Your invitation to gaze out at the clouds and envisage the idyllic life awaiting you when you touch down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>RELATED CONTENT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/how-airlines-clean-planes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How do airplanes clean the planes?<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Learn to pack smart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"733\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/01\/BAGS-1024x733.jpeg\" alt=\"couple with luggage\" class=\"wp-image-803787\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BAGS-1024x733.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BAGS-330x236.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BAGS.jpeg 1111w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be desperate to take your entire wardrobe with you.

For a head-start, change your phone\u2019s original time to your destination\u2019s time immediately on take-off. When you touch down, you\u2019ll already be in the mood. Now the adventure can really begin and you can immerse yourself like a local. Eat breakfast if it\u2019s 8am. Try to sleep if it&#8217;s 11pm. If needed (and depending on time of day) a caffeine boost on arrival can go a long way. Plus a tablet melatonin on your first night can help you sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>GET INSPIRED BY: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/destinations\/asia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tour Asia with Trafalgar<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Grab an upgrade or extra plane room<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/01\/plane-feature-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"air travel\" class=\"wp-image-803695\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/plane-feature-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/plane-feature-330x220.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/plane-feature-360x240.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/plane-feature-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/plane-feature.jpeg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ever heard of \u2018you don\u2019t ask, you don\u2019t get\u2019? In life and air-travel, there\u2019s no harm in popping the question. When you check-in and drop off your luggage, ask a member of staff if there\u2019s a seat going in business class. Second best thing: ask them how full the plane is and if there are any extra seats. That way, you could wave goodbye to the strangers next to you and stretch out blissfully with a whole row to yourself.
