Step 1
Before you purchase those next plane tickets, pick a seat to maximize your comfort while minimizing your disturbances. Look for seats with extra leg room or near an emergency exit. However, look out for seats that don't recline (as some emergency exit seats do not). Consider sitting at the window so you can avoid getting bumped by a drink cart during the flight or having to move to let someone into and out of their seat during a flight.

Get the accessories.
When boarding the flight, request a blanket or pillow when boarding the flight. If these aren't available, consider bringing your own or a jacket to use as a light blanket. Even a thin jacket can add -

Loosen up with small things.
After you have gotten settled in your seat, make some minor adjustments to maximize your comfort. Untying your shoelaces, taking off your shoes, or just reclining your seat will add immensely to your bodies ability to relax and feel comfortable. -

Next, tune in or tune out.
Bring along headphones to either cancel noise around you or to let you listen to music to fall asleep too. -

Start relaxing and letting your mind wander as you would before bed at night. Pretend as if you are at home to help your body fall back in a natural sleep state.
