Especially when i had to spend 32 hours to get home last holiday! but every other time i have travelld i have had my parents who carried over the counter sleeping tablets with them. This year i am going to europe on a school and am scared i will be unable to sleep. This because i find it hard enough to sleep when i am at home let alone on a plane with my language class! Do you have any extra tips for students travelling with their class? I have never been able to sleep well on a planes and hate it!

Choose your airline / plane wisely. In this case some cm's more or less really matter; both in terms of seat width and leg room :) 8. Choose your seat wisely. I love window seats as I can rest against them. Others need aisle seats as they use the toilet frequently. Choose a row not close to the toilets / kitchen as there is more movement and noise. 7.

I hope your fear of flying goes away so you can slumber. Oh, it would be so hard to stay up all night just to be able to sleep on the plane and then not fall asleep after all.

I used to try to stay up a long time to perhaps be so tired that I just would pass out on the plane. No such luck. No matter how tired I was I would get on the plane and immediately be in full flight or fight mode. You can't really sleep that off and now its a weird mix of tired fear tugging at your belly.

I've heard about staying up all night before in order to adjust, but I'd have to be pretty desperate myself. These are great suggestions, I think.
