when I travel I don't think about change in time zone and act as if nothing has changed, like it's just another day in my home town. My mind then automatically handles the rst.
The same happened to me when I traveled last year to India,I didn't give much thought to the change of time and it went so well, but what I didn't know was to drink lots of water before and fainted in airplane in the first flight but googled about it and learned about the drinking water and so I did just that when coming back home and thank God it went well 🙏👍
I flew from Canada to Turkey didn't even think about the time difference.. Just flew, slept on the flight, went to Turkey, slept at night and that was it. Don't think about it. See the airplane as a time machine or something, you to into a tube and go outside in a different place and that's all.
When I traveled to and from LA to China I used Brainwave program on my iPhone. It uses Binaural programs to allow your body to sleep or wake up and so I made sure that I would sleep or wake up according to the destination time zone. Worked like a charm - no jet lag and I was refreshed ready to see the sites.
Thanks guys you have the best travel channel. Both of you are professional, nice personality, humble, energetic and have good sense of humor. Blessings and good luck! (Your parent did an excellent job).
When I went to China, I purposefully didn't sleep much the night before and then I got onto the night flight (which departed LA around 2am) and was able to sleep on the plane and woke up / arrived in Beijing around 7-8 am and was decently rested. Going to a gym and having a hard workout always helped me as well.
I sometimes have doubts that I'm human....I have traveled the world for many years (Mom worked for British Airways, I worked for Pan Am, as did your Mom) and have never suffered from jet lag. I can also drink coffee last thing at night and fall right to sleep!
Lucky you 😊hope I won't have it either. We will fly from London to Bangkok in march. We will arrive at 8 am so I guess it's beneficial for us to sleep through the journey. Please tell me if I'm wrong. Never left Europe before therefore no experience of jet lag. 😊
Unfortunately I am old and severely handicapped. I cannot travel any more. I used to travel a lot when I was young. As a German I was lucky to have six weeks of paid annual leave. I have usually taken four weeks of my leave for a three week vacation/holidays. I have booked my departure on Tuesday/Wednesday although I have had the last working day on Friday and was off-duty by 1PM. For travel to the States I have started to party hard the German way on Friday, from 11PM to Saturday 5AM. Then I have slept until 1PM on Saturday and have again partied hard to get used to sleep from 5AM German time to 1PM German time which is 11PM to 7AM US East Coast time. For travel to Asia I have immediately started to heavily drink at home on Friday at 2PM until I have fallen asleep completely drunken at about 8PM. The next day I have started to drink by 9AM and have slept from 5PM to 1AM. In this way I could easily adjust my body to the time which was applied at my vacancy destination. After return to Germany on Wednesday/Thursday I still had enough time to adjust the jet lag in order to start working on the next Monday.
Overnight/Red Eye flights are the way to do it if you are traveling east to Europe. My wife's family lives in Germany and we live in Texas, so they are 7 hours ahead of us. We go visit once a year. We take a flight that leaves Boston around 8:30PM, so its dark, and it arrives in Munich at 9AM, so its light. If you can sleep just the last 2-3 hours or so of the flight and then open your eyes to morning in Germany, you basically instantly adjust to the new time zone. The first day there you are pretty tired and groggy, yes. But your body is ready to go to sleep when night comes. We go to bed early that fist night, around 8pm. And that's it, you wake up the next day adjusted.
I have a flight(actually flights) next month first from Istanbul to Frankfurt then to Reykjavik then to Boston then to San Francisco just in 48hours!! Guys this video means a lot to me!!! Hugs from Turkey!
Oh god!!! That sounds like a heavy dose of Jet Lag in the making!! Make sure you check the list of anti Jet Lag essentials in the description box, you’ll need that pillow we recommend :)
thanks guys :) btw I will be working in California for 3 months, next to Lake Tahoe with Work&Travel program as you guys suggested, now I am doing it!! so feel free to come and visit, beers on me!
I usually can’t fall asleep on airplanes. After my flight from the US to Japan I slept for 14 hours and woke up at 4am. But that was close enough that I didn’t feel much jet lag. On the way back home, I managed to fall asleep and it took me a week to recover.
I usually try to fall asleep at the flight and in addition I take a half of a pill that makes me complete my sleeping hours. It takes me like 4 days of adjustment.
When I fly from USA to Europe on an overnight 9 hour flight I always sleep as much as possible between the first and second meals. Then when I get there in the morning my head is sharp as ever for sight seeing and urban hiking, no jet lag here!
Me: does overnight flight with jet lag Earth: dark when falls asleep Earth: it’s morning 30 mins later still asleep Earth: dark 30 minutes later been sleeping for 1 hr (U get what I mean) Me:wakes up about a week later. Me:How long was I asleep? Passenger: 7 days
I'm taking on ten time zones for a trip in a couple of weeks! I find that getting together with locals right away - whether that is family or friends, really helps! I stick to their schedule and rest when they do.
I need a video on how to tell your psychiatrist that you'll be okay if you go traveling and that if you're depressed is because you've been stuck in the same busy and stressful city for years x
I will be traveling from Baltimore Maryland to Melbourne Australia (a total of 24 hours of layovers and flight times) including 2 layovers in Denver and LA before the long 15 hours to Melbourne. I will only have 1 1/2 days to relax (I guess), before a long 100 mile cycling event one day and a 50 mile cycling event the next in Australia. My flight is on a Monday afternoon. HELP!!!!!
Hi.. I've watched your videos recently. I'm curious, have you ever experienced a turbulence during your flight? If so, how did you manage yourself to remain calm?
Yes we definitely have, it’s always good to remember that planes are designed to have structural flex and them moving in turbulence is what they are designed to do. Then remember how many tens of thousands of commercial flights there are every day and how few crashes there are. If you start to have a freak out, just focus on slowing down your breathing with deep slow breathes and close your eyes. You’ll be fine :)
I leave for Japan in just over a month. I've been trying to put myself in the mindset and keep an eye on the local clock for the last month. As time draws closer, I've been slowly adjusting my body clock by trying to stay up as late as I can. I like the water bottle tip. Thanks guys!
Without notice I followed many of those tips in my last travel to Barcelona (from Venezuela).. and only took me two days to beat jet lag hahaha.. It really works!!
Flew from Central Europe to Alaska last year, forced myself to stay awake and get outside but the first two days were awful haha, felt tired and a bit sick... taking walks in fresh air helped :)
I am like 2m tall, the seating in the aircrafts won't allow me to sleep so once I get to my destination I just wait till the evening and go to sleep then.
I have a similar issue. Not as tall as you, but still tall. I ask to sit in a bulk head or emergency exit row and usually they'll allow it, it's worth a shot!
No jet lag issue, but there is a time zone difference between London-Cape Town. Currently it is 1 hour or it can be 2 hours depending on the time of year. Great vid.
I need help I leave UK at 9:50pm on a Wednesday and arrive at Australia 8:40am on a Friday I am working up until the day before I travel What do I do to avoid jet lag Aso need to know how to deal with flying new Zealand to UK
Ahhh...I'm flying to LA in 26 days from Sydney, Australia. We fly out at 940pm...spend 20 something hours in the air...and land at 11pm LA time...that is going to KILL ME!
Awesome tips! Loved this video. I'm going to Europe for a month in September and this will help so much. The 3 days prior tip was definitely new for me. Thanks so much! 👌😎♥️
I need advice I leave the UK at 21:30 on a Wednesday and arrive in Brisbane at 8:40am on a Friday via a 4 hour stopover When do I sleep When do I be awake
I just flew from England to America and my jet lag isn't as bad as I thought it would be. It's 11:00 p.m. and it's 6:00 p.m. in America. I always stay up late so it's not really a big difference. 😊
if you book a flight that arrives at your destination at night, you can fall right asleep. Just make sure to stay up during the flight. Even on those pesky 21 hour flights, it works wonders. Over 100 flights under my belt, TRUST ME!!!
I go from the East coast to Ireland pretty often (every two years or so) and my parents always say take a nap when we get there but I personally like to just stay awake until the night and my body does the rest.
bro i hate jetlag, i don't usually sleep at long haul flights when i do maximum i sleep is 2-3 hours, whenever i take vacation to Philippines flight time takes atleast 16-20 hrs, so ofc usually i don't really get to sleep in a day. and when i arrived there its already morning. so i need to stay awake for the next 12 hrs again. usually whenever i travel from west to east like this, i need to stay awake atleast for more than 24 hours. it sucks. it takes me 5-7 days to adjust when my vacation is only like 14 days. so basically 1 week of my vacation there i was just a drowsy zombie and can't fully enjoy it. thanks for these tips. hope it will help in the future
Great and accurate rules. To sum up the 'best' point...When you arrive to your destination, "don't do math." Don't focus on, count, or even remember what time it is from your origin. Math creates jag lag. Your stomach will stay on its schedule, but there's nothing you can do about that. However, you can trick your mind into adapting quickly. When you land, that is the time, and the only time, period!
As a retired a chiropractor who practiced acupuncture, I have never experienced jet lag on the 20+ trios Ive taken to Europe from the US. The secret is sleeping on the way over-even a few hours will help and on the way back stimulating acupuncture points by rubbing for 15 sec behind your knees in the web space once every hour you’re in the air. Of course, this means you don’t sleep at all going home. Try it, it works.No need to do this headed over to Europe from the US. Just sleep.
If you're flying from Australia, east coast, to Spain...well you're pretty well toast. 17 hrs But arriving in Barcelona at 9pm, go out to eat and then go to bed, I found we bounced. It was the days after we returned to Aus that zombied me.
You don't get jet lag going on holiday cause your doing to much and enjoying yourself too much ...you get it when you get home cause you just stop and have nothing to do
Use nose opening strips when sleeping on the aircraft. Every bit of o2 helps. Dab a of generic Neosporin in you nose, not to deep, with a q-tip before you board. It will keep your nose from drying out.
i can literally sleep on the spot. i have no fucks to give when it comes to sleep. On the spot demand, close my eyes and the next thing i know i just lost seven to eleven hours. i wonder what jet lag could do to my on-the-spot sleep pattern? only one way to find out!
I fly a lot and I never have jet leg i Find that if my flight if me is in the morning a don’t go to sleep when I get to the hotel I will go out and explore and go to sleep when the locals do. If my flight is at night when I arrive at the hotel I need to sleep and that is how a never hav jet lag
Guys, this is weird. :D Watching a video about dealing with jet lag with footage from all over the world and suddenly recognizing my personal running track at 7:30 back home. Nice tips by the way!
![How To Deal with Jet Lag [Travel Tips] | Brian Tracy](/img/n.gif)
Don't sleep on the flight, then power through the first day and go to sleep at about 9pm. Right as rain after that. Works for me every time.
Amen!
vagabrothers I've got to fly to/from Australia so I know I'm always in for a super long flight across tons of time zones. You get used to it.
Good thing I can never sleep on a plane or car or simething
Great tip but its very hard to not sleep on the 12 hour flight to South Korea XD
Or you dont sleep the night before your flight and sleep in the plane, but you need to make sure to land in the morning in your destination of choice.
when I travel I don't think about change in time zone and act as if nothing has changed, like it's just another day in my home town. My mind then automatically handles the rst.
Btw thanks for the tips!
Thanks for sharing yours too
The same happened to me when I traveled last year to India,I didn't give much thought to the change of time and it went so well, but what I didn't know was to drink lots of water before and fainted in airplane in the first flight but googled about it and learned about the drinking water and so I did just that when coming back home and thank God it went well 🙏👍
I flew from Canada to Turkey didn't even think about the time difference.. Just flew, slept on the flight, went to Turkey, slept at night and that was it. Don't think about it. See the airplane as a time machine or something, you to into a tube and go outside in a different place and that's all.
SpitfireJJ turkey is such a great country right!!
Watching this as I'm jet lagged. Wish I watched it before leaving my home town 😣
Adventurous Wanderlust1 same here

I'm going to be in big trouble when I zip over to Ireland from the west coast of Canada. Zombie tourist. hahaha
That’s definitely one where you’d want to do a red eye then stay up later when you arrive
Yep. I'm definitely taking this under advisement. lol
Me too, I'm going to Toronto and I'm from France ^^ have good holidays, Ireland is great :)
Thanks guys you have the best travel channel. Both of you are professional, nice personality, humble, energetic and have good sense of humor. Blessings and good luck! (Your parent did an excellent job).
Thank you for this wonderful comment 🙏🏼😊
When I went to China, I purposefully didn't sleep much the night before and then I got onto the night flight (which departed LA around 2am) and was able to sleep on the plane and woke up / arrived in Beijing around 7-8 am and was decently rested.
Going to a gym and having a hard workout always helped me as well.
When i travel to asia, i just try to sleep in the plane when it's night time in my destination, so i feel good in the morning in that destination
Come to Japan 🇯🇵 to enjoy jet lag ✈️ with 16hours time lag!
We need to get to Japan this year!!
Isnt it just 8 hours then? 🤔
I have been dreaming about going to Japan since I was 10 yrs. old and Im finally going this August! (also climbing Mt. Fuji...)
Louie Terrazas how was it? I’m going next week
Louie Terrazas, Congradulations! 😊 Have a great time!
I already live by some of these, but learned some new tips I didn't know. Thanks Vagabrothers!
I love the "no moaning" advice in general for travelling
I’m trying to recover jet lag Antigua-London as I see this video. Very useful, thanks!
I sometimes have doubts that I'm human....I have traveled the world for many years (Mom worked for British Airways, I worked for Pan Am, as did your Mom) and have never suffered from jet lag. I can also drink coffee last thing at night and fall right to sleep!
You’re a machine John!!
Wow! This has to feature as a super power among the X-Men. I'm not kidding. I struggle with it for at least a couple of weeks.
Thats a blessing:)
Lucky you 😊hope I won't have it either. We will fly from London to Bangkok in march. We will arrive at 8 am so I guess it's beneficial for us to sleep through the journey. Please tell me if I'm wrong. Never left Europe before therefore no experience of jet lag. 😊
My mom drinks so much coffee and soda before bed and sleeps like an angel. Five kids and my dad, what can you expect. 😂

Woah amazing tips! Usually I would stay up for a full day or two, and I sleep during my Long haul flights.
Hopefully the tips will help you in the future :)
I'm taking on ten time zones for a trip in a couple of weeks! I find that getting together with locals right away - whether that is family or friends, really helps! I stick to their schedule and rest when they do.
The thing which worked for me every time was partying the same night I arrived
That sounds like a plan for me!
Really useful! Thank you!
Thanks Melissa!
So glad I found you guys!

Thanks :)
Brilliant ! Thanks for the amazing tips. ❤️❤️
Thanks for watching Karen!!
Travelling from London to New Zealand through Malasya, hopefully it won't kill me!
How was it
Malaysia*
I appreciated jet lag in Cairo because I was up at 4am and sat on my room balcony, watched the Nile flow past and heard the call to prayer at sunrise.
This is more informative than my entire high school and college careers combined.
Have you not seen Die Hard? Just make fists with your toes on carpet!
Do you have a link to jetlag rooster? Can't find it. Thx
I need a video on how to tell your psychiatrist that you'll be okay if you go traveling and that if you're depressed is because you've been stuck in the same busy and stressful city for years x
Just go- call your doctor from the road or write a post card 🤙🏽
Great job
I will be traveling from Baltimore Maryland to Melbourne Australia (a total of 24 hours of layovers and flight times) including 2 layovers in Denver and LA before the long 15 hours to Melbourne. I will only have 1 1/2 days to relax (I guess), before a long 100 mile cycling event one day and a 50 mile cycling event the next in Australia. My flight is on a Monday afternoon. HELP!!!!!
Sweet tips brahs!
I'm so grateful for your channel. Going on a huge travel journey and all this content is so helpful. Love the tips. Thank you.
Thanks Gabriel!
THANK YOU
Can you help me get comp upgrades?
Hi.. I've watched your videos recently. I'm curious, have you ever experienced a turbulence during your flight? If so, how did you manage yourself to remain calm?
Yes we definitely have, it’s always good to remember that planes are designed to have structural flex and them moving in turbulence is what they are designed to do. Then remember how many tens of thousands of commercial flights there are every day and how few crashes there are. If you start to have a freak out, just focus on slowing down your breathing with deep slow breathes and close your eyes. You’ll be fine :)
I leave for Japan in just over a month. I've been trying to put myself in the mindset and keep an eye on the local clock for the last month. As time draws closer, I've been slowly adjusting my body clock by trying to stay up as late as I can.
I like the water bottle tip. Thanks guys!
Without notice I followed many of those tips in my last travel to Barcelona (from Venezuela).. and only took me two days to beat jet lag hahaha.. It really works!!
Enhorabuena 👏🏼👏🏼
Flew from Central Europe to Alaska last year, forced myself to stay awake and get outside but the first two days were awful haha, felt tired and a bit sick... taking walks in fresh air helped :)
That was so useful guys! You're such a great inspiration for my channel. Keep it up :)
I am like 2m tall, the seating in the aircrafts won't allow me to sleep so once I get to my destination I just wait till the evening and go to sleep then.
👏🏼👏🏼
Airplane seating can be extremely uncomfortable, especially if you’re taller or larger
I have a similar issue. Not as tall as you, but still tall.
I ask to sit in a bulk head or emergency exit row and usually they'll allow it, it's worth a shot!
😳😳😳😳😳 uhmm totally dont just drink 100 ml of water on a 10 hour flight
note: it cus i got motion sickness
No jet lag issue, but there is a time zone difference between London-Cape Town. Currently it is 1 hour or it can be 2 hours depending on the time of year. Great vid.
Love all the tips here! Will def keep in mind on my next trip :) you always inspire me to create better travel videos, thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed 🙌🏼

I need advice I leave the UK at 21:30 on a Wednesday and arrive in Brisbane at 8:40am on a Friday via a 4 hour stopover
When do I sleep
When do I be awake
I just flew from England to America and my jet lag isn't as bad as I thought it would be. It's 11:00 p.m. and it's 6:00 p.m. in America. I always stay up late so it's not really a big difference. 😊
I'm going to Ireland in June for 2 weeks from Philadelphia. So 5 hours ahead in Ireland. It was bad for you?
0:01 me after my fist night in California
Great video guys! Can't wait to see a new destination!
This was perfect. I’m trying to deal with jet lag right now!!!
You can do it! Where did you fly to/from?
vagabrothers I flew out to Siem Reap from LA! I got on that “no coffee / alcohol” tip
Go to New Zealand and other far reach islands.
if you book a flight that arrives at your destination at night, you can fall right asleep. Just make sure to stay up during the flight. Even on those pesky 21 hour flights, it works wonders. Over 100 flights under my belt, TRUST ME!!!
I go from the East coast to Ireland pretty often (every two years or so) and my parents always say take a nap when we get there but I personally like to just stay awake until the night and my body does the rest.
Ignore your parents hahah
untrue cape town and london have diffrent time zones 2 hours apart
My issue has to do more with coming back from a trip.

Please come to India once again and please do meet up for your Indian subscriber . I am waiting for you😃😃😘

Tip for trip from greece to japan???
bro i hate jetlag, i don't usually sleep at long haul flights when i do maximum i sleep is 2-3 hours, whenever i take vacation to Philippines flight time takes atleast 16-20 hrs, so ofc usually i don't really get to sleep in a day. and when i arrived there its already morning. so i need to stay awake for the next 12 hrs again. usually whenever i travel from west to east like this, i need to stay awake atleast for more than 24 hours. it sucks. it takes me 5-7 days to adjust when my vacation is only like 14 days. so basically 1 week of my vacation there i was just a drowsy zombie and can't fully enjoy it. thanks for these tips. hope it will help in the future
@vagabrothers We flew back from Barcelona to Lisbon to Newark to Colorado..wish we watched this first..oye..what day and time is it?..
Great and accurate rules. To sum up the 'best' point...When you arrive to your destination, "don't do math." Don't focus on, count, or even remember what time it is from your origin. Math creates jag lag. Your stomach will stay on its schedule, but there's nothing you can do about that. However, you can trick your mind into adapting quickly.

Flew from L.A to Munich Germany 15hr flight stayed awake powered thru the whole thing went to Oktoberfest fest and slept good lol
You don't get jet lag going on holiday cause your doing to much and enjoying yourself too much ...you get it when you get home cause you just stop and have nothing to do
Hahah interesting theory - don’t know if it works like that for everyone though
vagabrothers I reckon it' mostly works for Aussies hahaha
Wow vagabrothers shows the Cheapest Budget Travel Destinations in the World. very nice
Use nose opening strips when sleeping on the aircraft. Every bit of o2 helps. Dab a of generic Neosporin in you nose, not to deep, with a q-tip before you board. It will keep your nose from drying out.
Thanks ..great tips.travelling from New York to Singapore 15hrs, with a 5hrs layover in Shanghai. and a 4hrs flight into Singapore.Total 24hrs..
⚠️ And don't forget to take 🚿😬 a cold shower after the jogging 🏃... It will help you to stay awake!
i can literally sleep on the spot.
i have no fucks to give when it comes to sleep.
On the spot demand, close my eyes and the next thing i know i just lost seven to eleven hours.
i wonder what jet lag could do to my on-the-spot sleep pattern? only one way to find out!
Flying to Thailand next month in 16 hours flight duration. Thanks guys
I fly a lot and I never have jet leg i Find that if my flight if me is in the morning a don’t go to sleep when I get to the hotel I will go out and explore and go to sleep when the locals do. If my flight is at night when I arrive at the hotel I need to sleep and that is how a never hav jet lag
Never sleep on the plane either way it just sucks when adjusting to home time again in summer. 16 hours is a hard time change to adjust to.
Guys, this is weird. :D Watching a video about dealing with jet lag with footage from all over the world and suddenly recognizing my personal running track at 7:30 back home.
Nice tips by the way!
I travel from San Francisco to Manila and back took me about 2 days to readjust
Nothings better than I am traveling to Russia which is the exact same time zone as my home country! Lol
Idk whats going on with my jetlag. Im taking 3 hr naps every 12 hra
Tell me how to deal with jet lag from Vancouver to Singapore 🇸🇬 ?!
Thank you for this! In a week I'm flying to South Korea from Michigan and the time difference is going to kick my butt, but this made me feel better!
