Productive flight: an expert advised on how to make the most of your time in the air to reduce boredom and learn something new
Traveler and blogger Mitch Glass shared some atypical but useful tips to help make your next flight more productive. Passengers are often advised to sleep, watch movies, or listen to music, but few people recommend taking time to study.
This can be quite useful if you had little time to prepare for your trip. Instead of mindlessly scrolling through your phone's feed or watching movies, Mitch recommends choosing one of the ways to develop and prepare for a new adventure.
It will be useful for tourists to learn a few key phrases in the language of the country they are traveling to. It will help to strike up a conversation with locals, feel more confident, and impress new friends.
It also doesn't hurt to bring a book related to your destination and start reading it. The new information will help you better understand the culture and history of the destination, as well as identify the attractions you are interested in.
Instead of movies, which can cause anxiety, passengers are advised to download apps for meditation or breathing exercises. This will help you relax and calm your nerves during the flight.
Mitch shared that he likes to use his flight time to be as productive as possible. This way, the journey will be faster and more rewarding, and new knowledge will supplant nervousness and fear.
