In Flight

It is imperative that in between the funny little meals and movie watching on board, that you get up and move about to avoid general circulation issues. This is customary on international flights in ways that are grossly frowned upon on domestic flights. I will remind you and you will see me all but doing a gymnastics routine up and down the aisles. Join me!

Water...Lufthansa will offer us all sorts of nifty beverages (free) that would help us sleep, laugh, etc. However, I cannot stress enough how important it is to consume water as much as possible to avoid long distance travel, dehydration, which only adds to poor circulation/cramping issues.

Sleep: It's a great idea for you to sleep while on the plane as when we arrive in Greece, we will hit the ground running (this is actually a good thing so we can adjust our internal clocks to theirs). You will energize when there due to the excitement but the next day you will really be dragging. If you can get some sleep on the plane (ear plugs, eye cover, neck pillow, perhaps a benadryl, etc.) you will be ahead of the game a little.
