Step 1
Start off well rested. If you're already tired when you start it will be much more difficult to adjust to a new time zone.
-
Step 2
Leave in the morning, arrive in the evening. Red-eye flights are much more likely to cause jet lag, so avoid them whenever possible.
-
Step 3
Drink plenty of fluids on the plane - BUT NO ALCOHOL.
-
Step 4
Get involved in local activities as soon as possible. Socialize, do some sightseeing, take a walk around the town.
-
Step 5
Don't take a long nap. If you need one, don't go longer than 15 minutes. That will give you a good rest.
-
Step 6
Get out in the sun. The more sunshine the better you'll feel. Of course, don't forget your sunscreen.
-
Step 7
Get some exercise - outdoors if possible.
-
Step 8
Give yourself a full day before making any important decisions.
