Window seat and AirPods! Best part of any trip is admiring the view. Beyond that some gum / suckers and a Gas X to help acclimatise to the extended elevation

If you’re not in the aisle seat and need to wake someone up, wake them up. This doesn’t make you rude or a bad person! Get to the airport early-early if you can. No need to add additional stress to your trip. Someone here suggested packing a couple days early to reduce stress. Some people love a neck pillow. Bring an empty water bottle to fill after going thru airport security Keep your seatbelt on, loosened a little, so any turbulence won’t feel scary Maybe think about how wonderful it is to be able to travel so far so quickly. Flying is annoying and uncomfortable, and it also is safe!

╰ seconding @BEE1000's bringing an empty water bottle to fill after security ╰ carry on: 2 fl oz hypochlorous acid spray or rose water for hydrating skin mid-air ╰ carry on: a deli sandwich to look forward to ╰ carry on: a playlist of your favorite, most joyous or soothing songs ╰ carry on: an engrossing book ╰ coping with turbulence: remember that planes are built specifically to withstand turbulence ╰ coping with turbulence: dance in your seat when it gets bumpy. it moves the anxious energy through you and it works to confuse the body as to where the jolts are coming from ╰ if you must, have max (1) alcoholic drink, altitude intensifies dehydration

1. Wait until the night before you leave, meander until 8 or 9 2. Select background entertainment—a comfort watch? A new playlist? The right background entertainment is crucial, best not to rush this process (30min) 3. clean up the room a bit so you have places to spread out what you’re going to pack (20-40min) 4. Fashion show! Try on and consider different outfit combos, set them out where everything can be visible at once (1.5-2.5 hours) 5. You’ve made your selections! Start organizing into packing cubes to fit nicely in your bag (30min) 6. You’ve run out of space! Time to reevaluate your outfits and try again (30min) 7. toiletries! you never cleaned out your travel containers from last trip, so you have to do it now. You make a mess in the sink pouring your potions into TSA-approved bottles (they might still take them away) (20min) 8. Dont forget to take out the garbage and water the plants! (5-10min) 9. Time for bed! Your Uber is picking you up in three hours 💋

I usually just make myself drip coffee or a single cup of tea during the week but I’ve got a little time so why not make a whole tea service just for me
