Jet lag can be an unpleasant start to a holiday, leaving tourists feeling exhausted and disorientated.<\/p>\n

While it can\u2019t always be avoided, there are a few things holidaymakers can try to reduce its impact.<\/p>\n

Consumer expert and former flight attendant, Jane Hawkes, shared her top tips to beat jet lag with\u00a0Express.co.uk\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Before a long-haul flight, passengers are sometimes allowed to pick a seat free of charge up to 24 hours before the flight.<\/p>\n

Jane said: \u201cThe rear of the plane can be a lot noisier as can any seats around the galley areas.\u201d Seats around the galley may experience more noise as people will stand around the area during the flight.<\/p>\n

Jane added: \u201cEat light, wear comfortable clothing, take ear plugs and choose your seat carefully on board if you are able to select one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ear plugs and an eye mask are essential items if passengers want to catch a bit of shut eye on a busy international flight.<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cAvoid making any big adventurous plans on arrival. Navigating your way round a new place can be very stressful and it\u2019s easier and more enjoyable to do when jet lag eases.<\/p>\n

\u201cTake short naps if necessary but avoid napping for longer than 30 minutes as this can stop you from falling asleep properly later and will delay the adjustment process.\u201d<\/p>\n

If there\u2019s a significant time difference, it\u2019s important to try to adjust your body clock to the new time zone. Taking a nap could delay this process.<\/p>\n

However, Jane said it\u2019s not always worth adjusting your body clock if it\u2019s only a short trip overseas.<\/p>\n
