Jetlag has to do with a person’s internal clock, and takes a week to get rid of once you have gotten use to the new time zone. When I was overseas, my body wanted to sleep in the afternoon, and I couldn’t sleep at all, in the middle of the night. I read the article, maybe I missed it, but I didn’t see how they plan to rid passengers of jetlag.

My secret to no jetlag... I drink lots of water on the plane. When I arrive to my destination I do not take a nap and try to stay up as late as possible. (10-11 PM) I get up the next day and stay awake and active all day.

The trips that I have come back home and sat on my couch to watch a little TV - WHAM, I fell asleep early in the afternoon or evening. When my sleep has been over an hour or two - I have JET LAG.

So, my real secret is to stay away from my couch. I go to the mall, a restaurant, shopping anything to stay away from a place that I could fall asleep easily.
