A study in the Journal of Physiological Anthropology found that feet-warming socks led to 7.6% higher sleep efficiency, 7.5 times fewer sleep awakenings, and 32 more minutes of sleep among the participants. In addition to a blanket, you may also want to kick off your shoes and wear some bed or flight socks.
Try a cooling cap to create a sleep-ready environment.
Research from the School of Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh also found that cooling head temperature helped insomnia patients achieve equal sleep quality to healthy participants. Dress in light, easily removable layers to both prevent overheating and from getting cold when the airplane cools. A study found that 60% of planes experience temperature swings of 50 degrees. While cabins are generally kept between 71 and 75 degrees, temperatures fluctuate in different zones of the cabin and when a plane takes off, is in flight, and lands. Science suggests that the temperature for optimal sleep is between 60 and 67 degrees Fahrenheit.
#GET SOME SLEEP LANGY YOU LOOK TIRED HOW TO#
Read on for our science-backed strategies* for how to sleep on a plane. Working around these limitations can increase your chances of restful slumber onboard.
However, it doesn’t always have to be this way. Missing out on shuteye can lead to exhaustion and jet lag when you reach your destination. Between the sardine-packed spaces and constant noise, sleep in the sky is hard to come by (unless you’re flying first class or have the power to knock out anywhere). Let’s face it: a plane is no comfy place to sleep.
