Philippine Flights: How to Stay Looking (and Feeling) Fabulous During Long Flights

Let’s face it, it is not unusual for anyone to start a vacation hassled and frazzle when it is supposed to be a trip intended to relax and unwind. If you are from the United States or Europe and you get on one of those Philippine flights to Manila or Cebu, chances are that long-haul flight leaves you cramped, dehydrated, and feeling like you’re having one of those worst bad-hair days.

Here are some simple tips to stay looking fabulous and feeling perked-up during (and even after) several hours of being airborne on one of your Philippine flights:

Stay hydrated

Dehydration is a cause of fatigue. The resulting combination of fatigue and dehydration could make you look like someone you’d never one to look like: haggard, tired-looking, and dry as a prune. It would help you best if you bring along your own bottled water as in-flight water serving wouldn’t be enough (imagine those small paper cups that are smaller than your tea-cup). The longer the flight is, the more water you would need to have. Don’t worry about frequent trips to the restroom – it actually forces you to stand up, do some stretching, and walk – another “must” in long-haul Philippine flights to wake up your joints and to stimulate blood circulation. Just note how you will comply with airport regulations on hand-carried liquids.

Note: avoid caffeinated beverages and alcohol. They tend to dehydrate you. They can also prevent you from taking that relaxing nap.

Moisturize

Use a spritzer with essential oils. Apply moisturizer or moisturizing lotion to your face, hands, elbows, arms, knees, etc. to give you the feeling of freshness while relieving parts of your body that are prone to dryness. Generously applying moisturizer could also give you the reason to gently massage your arms and legs to promote circulation.

Note: don’t forget about airport regulations about gels and liquids hand-carried past the check-in counter. Put them in a transparent zip-locked bag. Lotions or moisturizers in large bottles can be transferred to smaller bottles or sachets (just enough for the duration of your Philippine flights) so they will fit in your ziplock bag.

Move those muscles and joints

Notice our repeated reminder to walk (visit to the rest-room, massage, etc.) to keep your muscles and joints lose and limber. It would help you better if you can manage to get a seat with a larger legroom. Suffering from stressed muscles and cramps are simply some of the best ways to make you look, well… unfabulous.

Wear loose clothes could also help you relax better during the entire length of your Philippine flights.

During stop-overs, don’t take this as an opportunity to slouch on one of those airport lounge chairs, as if you’ve just been to a tiresome activity. You would want to walk around after that long bout of sitting in the cabin – not sit.

You know, feeling alive, alert, and fit could be all it talks to keep looking and feeling fabulous – whether you’re on one of those long Philippine flights, or even when you’re simply working in your 8-5 office routine.
