How to Occupy your Time While in Flight

1. Be a reporter.

Do you know how long your flight is? When exactly is take off? When will it be time to land? And how will you know? Better ask these questions and always get a second opinion. Your goal is to ask these questions to at least 25 people. Write down their response. Compare the answers and then ask the airline steward for the final answers. Then report to the entire airplane.



2. Tell jokes.


This seat mate knows all my jokes.
Better try out jokes with the person
behind me. I'm sure they will like them.



Make up Corny jokes that you may of told in the 3rd grade. If you can't think of any; google down a bunch of jokes to take with you. Try them out with your seat mate. They will be glad to listen and pass the time with you.

Here is an example. "Why did the farmer stop growing corn?" Why? "Because he was up to his Ears in it."

3. Take up exercising. 

It's not lunges...but Zumba
in the aisles would be even better



It's never too late to start living a healthier life style. And while on a long flight you'll have time to start your new routine. I highly recommend you start by doing lunges to the bathroom.  Stop to stretch at the bulk head. Do 10 jumping jacks next to the bathroom. Lunge back. In your seat, stretch some more, it's good for you. Repeat at least 10 times before you stop for a break.

4. Start a romance.

Write a love note to the person in seat 13c. Sign it from the person in seat 31a and then sent them a drink. Then nuts. And then another note. Watch the romance bloom.



I didn't suggest a crossword
because this might take weeks



5. Learn to meditate.

I heard that meditation good for you. Clears the mind. I think a lot of out loud "ummmmmmsss" are in order.

6. Write a book.

Write a book. You'll have time. Ask the person next to you how to spell "murder" and "life sentence" and "guilty." When they ask what you are writing tell them it's your autobiography.

7. Take pictures.



This is why you need to learn to use your camera.
 Don't want vacation photos like this one.

Do you really know all the features of your new camera? Are you really sure?? Take pictures of your seat mate and then ask them to take pictures of you. Try all the settings on your camera. Don't forget to use the timer to take pictures of you and your seat mate.

8.  Eat all your Airline Food.

Do I really need to say any more about that???
