Jetlag
Hi
Apologies if this is the wrong forum - as a punter not a cabin crew member - but I reckon you are the right people to ask about jet lag.
Just wondered if you had any "old wives tales" cures for it that really work?
I fly from London to the Far East and/or Australia several times a year and jet lag ****s me every time I head east. Even if I'm knackered and go to bed on the first evening around 10pm, I wake in the middle of the night, and then manage to stay awake till about 3pm before I have to collapse for an emergency snooze, and this lasts for at least 3 or 4 days.
I know they say "fight it" and don't go to sleep in the day, but I can't help it, especially on day one.
Never much of a problem flying west.
Anyway, any tips that really work very much appreciated.
By the way, flew last week on QF to and from Melbourne in J, and have to say on all four sectors, some of the best crew I've ever had (and I fly around 60 times a year) and a real credit to the airline.
Thanks in advance
