When flying, most likely at your seat you will have streaming radio whereby there will be a variety of music and talk shows available to you for your enjoyment. On flight times of 3 hours or more usually you can also select a movie to watch among several choices. For transoceanic flights, often you can watch up to 3 movies. For serious movie watchers, this can be a wonderful dream for making your very long trip a little more enjoyable. Be creative when flying among the stars!

When standing on the ground, flying on an airplane often seems to be so thrilling, hopeful, and even mysterious. It's a ride high in the sky to unknown adventures and opportunities. The actual plane ride though is often more of a challenge than excitement. The cabin temperature can vary from too hot, especially when there is a take-off delay, to extremely cold when flying at high altitudes. In economy class the seats are small and packed in tightly with other seats. If you are tall or wide, there may be discomfort from lack of leg room and sitting space. Sleep if you can; exercise periodically in your seat by stretching, or get up and walk around; drink lots of water; and keep a positive attitude which always helps in getting you to your destination in good condition!
