@buildyourmoxie You are more than welcome -- you deserve it! Your cheery disposition is uplifting. Have a truly wonderful holiday season! (｡･ω･｡)
I’m going to Japan next July 2025 (whoo!) and I’m so thankful for all your tips thus far! I also LOVE your positive and excited vibe, I’ve really been enjoying your videos ❤
Aww!!! =D thank you so much for being so nice to me and for watching!! YAY JAPAN is going to be SO WONDERFUL!! You will love love love it! =D. Keep me posted on how it goes! I love hearing updates hehe
Never thought of using a small compression cube behind my back, fabulous idea 🌟I will try this next week! ✈️🌎 I can applaud over the head noise cancelling headphones- SO GOOD. Talking books are great for helping to switch off and snooze. Add an eye mask, comfy hoodie and it certainly helps. I drink water and use toilet breaks to stretch am I’m 174cm and feel cramped. Can’t afford business, sigh.
@ I was very lucky and got three seats to myself on the flight home! So although tall, I could curl up and sleep a lot of the 9 hour night flight home. Very thankful for this experience as I know they are far and few between as airlines are generally overbooked.
Ooo thank you for the tips, I've only recently found your channel and I think your fab! I'm flying to Japan from the uk next September so I've been watching your Japan videos they are very helpful too so thank you 😍
Great tips, and just in time for my next trip! I got one of those aisle seats you recommended, and I am looking forward to getting some good sleep on my way to Japan. I also used some of your guides to plan the journey! Totally worth it! Thank you so much, and maybe I'll run into you in Japan! 😁
I had a baby, not mine, on the 14 hour flight to japan that cried the whole time. Had ear plugs, eye mask but couldn't sleep due to the baby. I also really needed a jacket with a hood! My head froze 😢 I used my face mask to keep my nose warm. Loved the socks u recommended!
@@rebeccacrow9616 😣that sounds so rough!! Oo yes a hoodie is game changer! Just that little bit of material helps so much! Also some flights are sooo cold. Once I used my laptop case as another layer for warmth 😂 I’m so happy you like the socks!!
@@buildyourmoxie I might try that tiger tail too as my knees were sore during those flights. I DID to the stretches you recommended about every hour or so. I think those helps a great deal. I also used my pillow for back support. You give really good advice worth following! Thank you! Now if you can find me a source to buy all those Japanese goodies now that I am back to the USA. I have checked into a couple and the shipping fees are killer.
I cannot sleep on a flight. I'm an aisle seat person because I need to get up to use the bathroom. I just bought over the head earphones because Airpods do not last a whole international flight. I will try some of your tips next time.
I'm glad you bought over-the-head headphones! They are a game changer for sure with battery lol. I’m an aisle person too because I feel less claustrophobic and I love walking around I hope some of these help!
for reals! Eye mask when you are sweaty is the worst too. I was in a hot and humid place and was miserable haha. But now I can just bring the pro one cuz it has so many nice breathing holes 😝
Hi there!! Love your videos! Just a curious question from someone planning a trip to Japan. Do you have a preferred airline for flying to Japan or does it just depend on times?
I love any type of Asian run airlines when I travel to asia. My favorite is Japan air cuz they don’t weigh my carry on bag hahaha. And then next is Singapore air. Both these are soooo professional and they always make things right. And then I try to fly direct cuz I’m from Los Angeles and it’s an option :). I’ve had great experiences!
@@buildyourmoxiesameeee. But I’m definitely gonna try the muscle relaxing techniques and try wearing the turtl the way you showed, I was propping up my chin and it was awkward 😂. Also looking forward to your exercise videos since you’re a physical therapist so hopefully I should have a better chance of not injuring myself following along!
I have a question 😭 on planes my tailbone hurts like hell. What do I do to prevent/ deal with it? Also my legs are so swollen even if I wear compression socks.
I feel like some airline seats are the worst! Are you taking the same airline? For example Asiana hurts my tailbone like crazy! But then I’m fine on other airlines. Try sitting on a folded sweater or shirt but put it under your actual butt bone. It will told your knees lower than your hips. Do you have long legs? How tall are you? :) So many different factors can be causing some tailbone issues. 🤪 Also are your hips flexible? That can help relieve pressure too!
How To Be More Comfortable On Long Flights (Best Plane Stretches) ruclips.net/video/M66wl4AfTkY/видео.html Try some of these too. Especially the leg ones For ur swelling. Try walking around every hour or so. Pump your ankles a lot too. And calf raises

@buildyourmoxie omg thank you for such quick responses! I have watched almost all ur travel videos. And yes I am flying Asiana 😭😭😭😭 LA to Korea, 14hr... I am a bit tall? 5'6?5'5 ish my leg is on a longer side.
Oh Nooooo = you're one of those that recline your seat. I know I know I know it's an option that the airlines offer. Then everybody reclines and the last row suffers :(
@@mikeb6131 most of the airplane seats I feel don’t recline back too far and the trays and TV screens still are good for the person behind. I think 80% of the people I see on the plane recline! but yeah avoid back row for sure 😝

Oh p.s. I do use your exercises on the plane.
Buddy! Ooo that’s so cool!! 🤩
My other comment vanished😢 lol. Glad I had the p.s.
@@RUclipsrMe68 oh! That’s so weird!! I only have this comment haha
I left long one before this one. It was why i cant sleep on a plane. Then i did the p.s. I guess it wasnt important lol. @buildyourmoxie
@ haha that makes sense!! Too bad it deleted 😞
I always put the provided pillow behind my back! I don’t trust plane germs so I don’t take anything out of my bag 😅. I don’t get any sleep tho lol rip
Totally get it!! I always Clorox wipe my entire seat, tray, armrest, seatbelt if I can! Cuz I hate plane germs 🥲
@@buildyourmoxiesameeee. But I’m definitely gonna try the muscle relaxing techniques and try wearing the turtl the way you showed, I was propping up my chin and it was awkward 😂.

@ 🥰yay! Let me know how it goes!!! ❤️ hehe
My number one tip is to take a sleep gummy that thing knocks me right out and I can sleep for seven hours straight
That is amazing!! =D I haven’t tapped into any supplements or gummies, but I hear it can work wonders!!
