Hey Pandas, What Are Some Things You Do To Stop Boredom On Long Flights?

Daydreaming. Passes more time than you'd think, depending on the scenario you get into.

Hey Pandas, What Are Some Things You Do To Stop Boredom On Long Flights?

If I'm not sleeping, I'm looking out the window, playing on my phone, reading or watching movies from the screen. The longest flight I've been on was a little over 12 hours. I wasn't bored, but my asš fell asleep around hour 6.

I have a notebook I bring with me that's I've written in in nothing but code. I write poems and journal entries and all sorts of other things. I love it when my travel neighbor notices and inevitably stares in confusion. Lol

sleep XD

Sleep. Eat meal. Bathroom. Sleep.

I used to enjoy the Skymall magazine, but now it’s a good time for a nap.

Hey Pandas, What Are Some Things You Do To Stop Boredom On Long Flights?

Sleep, read, watch a movie on phone, talk to my family

Drawing, reading, writing. Basic stuff.

Look out the window and relax.

Hey Pandas, What Are Some Things You Do To Stop Boredom On Long Flights?

I'd say look out the window however on every flight I've been on that had a window seat every one around me choose the ever popular sleep method. If however you are on a more modern plane then you can look at the flight information/map screen. Once you get bored of that or if you don't have one you can sit in silence and contemplate the oddities of life.

Looking at the flight map and improving my geography skills

Hey Pandas, What Are Some Things You Do To Stop Boredom On Long Flights?

Break up the time in weird but better-sounding increments. An eight-hour flight is still under 10 hours. It's 2 x 4 hours, and 4 hours are ok to pass. The first and last hour don't count because taking off / descending is entertaining (well, almost) and everything sub 1 hour is ok anyway. Cross out another hour for eating (including longingly staring at the trolleys, come on, serve me already!) So we're down to a much shorter time if I succeed in fooling myself :)

Hey Pandas! What Was The Most Luckiest Moment Of Your Life?

When I moved to my new neighborhood, I met a boy. He was nice but I was afraid to ask him over to play (8 yrs old.) Then my sister got invited to her new best friend's house and there he is, the older brother of the little girl my sister was friends with. We are best friends to this day.

30 Things You Should Know Before Visiting The United States For The First Time Ever, According To Americans

Here's something people may not know about this. It's almost universal for restaurants to pay waitstaff LESS THAN THE MINIMUM WAGE that other workers get. For example, in Florida, normal minimum wage is $10.00/hr, but for waitstaff, it's only $3.02/hr. Waitstaff survive on tips. If I'm not willing to tip 20% at a restaurant, I don't eat there.

Google translate only makes you look ridiculous- and wrong. Do not do connections under 6 hours, way too stressful.

Everytime I open my gallery there are pictures of people,dogs, objects, body parts (like noses, feet, knees, hands, eyes, and necks..), and rooms at bad angles. There is not one, but at the LEAST 40 pictures there. #littlebrother

Although paying with credit cards is supposed to be better, it's hella hard trying to keep track of your spending when your still using funds from your home currency and remembering to convert. I called my bank concerned someone took money out of my account. Turns out I forgot I didn't take out $80 Cdn. I took out 80 GBP. Big head smack, there. Next time I'm setting up a traveller's account. It may be easy for people without a learning disorder. Math dyslexia (dyscalculia) makes it a bee-otch to stay on track. I wish I was more prepared for the long, loooong skywalks at the airport. I didn't think they'd ever end. As well as the high prices at the airports. I did hear it was more expensive, I didn't know how much more expensive. Some things were double or triple the price of what it would be elsewhere.

That it would probably be my only opportunity to do so and for that reason I should’ve appreciated it more, paid more attention.

That their lifestyle is awesome and I wish I had learned at least a bit of their language in advance to communicate with those folks. I'm learning it now and I'll definitely go back.

While walking down the street, people will randomly make eye contact and then smile. No, you don't know them, this is just their way of being polite. They expect you to smile back and then break eye contact.

The McDonalds is not the same as in your country and will most likely make you sick.
