QotD: In-Flight Entertainment
How do you pass the time during a flight? What do you bring in your carry-on?
I bring a book or two (or three) depending on how long the flight is. If it's a cross-country flight, I'll pack three books. I read pretty fast, so I'll bring a book to read while traveling to a location, one to read from a location, and sometimes a third to read in case I finish both books, or one of them sucks royal ass.
I also take a pillow, eye mask and earplugs. Sleep is a great way to survive a flight, especially across timezones.
I used to bring an iPod, but without noise cancelling headphones, it's a pointless exercise. You'll blow your eardrums out trying to drown out the plane's engine noise.
