Theme: How do you pass the time on a flight?
Matthew / U.K.
My wife and I like to play cards, backgammon, other games like that. I try and read. I try and watch the movies, but often I just look out the window.
Eoin / U.K.
When I'm on flight I like to sleep, but unfortunately I can't always sleep. Failing that, watching the movies is good, listening to my iPod or reading a book, something like that. In terms of not ... what I don't like to do ... I don't like to drink on flights, seeing that I had a pretty bad drinking beer and then passing out on an airplane before.
Lori / Canada
Well, usually, I'm too excited when I'm on a flight to concentrate on the movie or to concentrate on a book, so usually I try to convince my husband to play cards with me or one of the many travel games we brought, and also I eat and drink everything they will bring me ... any complimentary food or drink item, bring them to me.
Aki / Japan
I usually sleep. Like when the plane takes off. I get some sleep. When I wake up, maybe two hours later, I start watching DVDs, movies. I also bring my iPod with me all the time, so I listen to podcasts and music.
Amir / Iran
I watch videos. I talk to the passenger next to me. I walk. I drink wine, or I just simply sleep.
Shalini / Canada
Long flight: sleeping, watch a movie, one movie, no matter how good the rest are, eat the dinner, have a drink and just sleep for the rest of the flight.

Maiko / Japan
Flying long distances can be really stressful, especially on my legs, but one of the things I like to do is to watch DVDs. Sometimes you can watch on-demand movies. That's a great way of passing time on a plane ... or reading some books you brought.
Paul / U.K.
Well, first of all, I really, really hate flying so I try and just sleep but if I can't sleep then I usually spend the time reading of if there is a good movie then I will watch the on-flight movie.
Prae / Thailand
Usually when I'm on the flight, I usually sleep or listening to music on my iPod
Lyndsay / U.S.
When I'm on a flight, I usually watch movies that I've downloaded or I'll read a magazine or sometimes I'll read a book.
Chris / U.K.
I try to divide up my times, so I'll start off doing something really boring. So I'll do some work or read a book that need to do for my study, and once I've done that for a couple of hours, then I'll just switch to watching a movie or download an audio books from itunes and listen to those as well.
Tom / U.S.
When I'm on a flight, I'll always try to bring a boring book. That way, I'll either learn something, or I'll sleep like a baby.
Jeff / Canada
That's a good question because I can't sleep on a plane usually cause I'm really tall and the seats are too small for me, and they're pretty uncomfortable, so I just watch the movies and and I listen to music on my iPod and read a book. You know, normal stuff.
