good morning adventurers
we're leaving Seattle we've been here
for like three weeks we didn't film that
much but we just kind of took a break
and we've been hanging out with a friend
matt had to say goodbye to Matt which
was sad it's been real we've been in his
place he let us crash with him for like
three weeks
he also give us a ride to the airport
can you believe that stand-up guy right
here we are off to Paris
today yes sure we have a nonstop flight
which will be very nice we got here a
little early I think it's gonna be a
good day trying to make it a little
stress when we do long-haul flights we
always see comments where you guys are
like oh I don't know how you fly for so
long how do you stay sane how do you
handle such a long flight we hear from
our friends and family all the time yeah
and so we thought it'd be cool to do a
guide to how we survive long-haul
flights disclaimer we are not experts in
any way we're gonna give you our best
tips that we have learned cuz we've done
this for four years we've taken a lot of
long haul flights I like to think we
know a thing or two yeah for now we are
going to get behind security and then we
will see you again
we've breezed through security we've got
plenty of time
oh yeah we are rockin and rollin I'm
good and we decided we have so much time
we're gonna give you guys our first tip
right now which is very important figure
out what it was maybe the first tip is
to make sure that you get the right
amount of sleep before the flight that
you're about to do
for example our flight is going to be
boarding at about 1:00 p.m. Seattle time
but then we're gonna be landing at 8:00
a.m. Paris time for this flight we made
sure to go to bed really early and then
that way we could sleep in a little bit
and have plenty of sleep to keep us
going for the 24 hours of travel we are
gonna be up for a long time starting now
and conversely if you're doing an
overnight flight and let's say your
flights at like 3 a.m. and it's an
eight-hour flight or something that it's
probably best to stay up until 3 a.m.
and then try to sleep on the plane if
you can do that we try to avoid that
because we can't really sleep on planes
we have a ton of more tips to give you
guys more exciting than just getting
enough sleep I promise but before we get
on the flight we wanted to let you know
that this video is brought to you by
cyberghost cyberghost VPN is one of the
top apps that we use while we're
traveling because a VPN actually keeps
your internet connection secure when
you're traveling and using a bunch of
foreign Wi-Fi hotspots like an airport
or a cafe it also saves you a ton of
money potentially so we were looking of
a flight and we used our current
location and it was showing us one price
then we flipped on cyberghost and went
to another location and we found tickets
for so much cheaper the exact same
ticket for cheaper cheaper as well we've
done this with hotels and flights it's
blowing my mind how much money we have
wasted about using a VPN we use
cyberghost
on our iOS devices and on Mac because
that's what we use but they actually
have apps for tons of different
platforms it covers up to seven devices
so we have all four of our devices
hooked to one account on account
mm-hmm cyberghost doesn't keep any logs
of your activity so when you flip
cyberghost on they don't even know what
you're doing you become a true cyber
ghost a ghost II that's what they call P
yeah who used cyber ghost you can become
a ghost see they've given us a special
discount just for you guys they're gonna
give you 18 months for 79 percent off
nine percent off it is a fantastic deal
and a
you money it pays for itself they have a
45 day money back guarantee so even if
you don't like using a VPN which you
probably will you get your money back
we're gonna have some more tips coming
at you guys but first happy so it was a
bit too loud on the plane I think it was
a little ambitious of me to think that I
could film this whole thing on the plane
with all the talking bits and stuff yeah
it was crazy loud but we tried so we
figured well fast forward to the future
and we'll finish the tips here in the
comfort of our quiet domicile this first
item is a little unique when I found it
though I was like I have to try this guy
out because it's so goofy it is this
carry-on footrest that you take with you
so it's like a little I guess I'm we're
both wearing black it looks like a weird
large strap or something hammock for
your feet and so you put it either over
the top of the chair in front of you or
your little tray table and then your
feet go in this park nice and padded
with some memory foam in there but my
knees always kill me on flights just
trying to get them down under the chair
and for some reason when they're up high
on this I don't know it's just much more
comfortable for me I can actually fall
asleep my butt doesn't fall asleep quite
as quickly when I first found out she
was gonna be traveling with this I was
like do we really need to use our space
for that but uh but it weighs nothing
yeah you can go launches a bit yeah in
the bottom of your bag like that or you
can keep it open and just line the
bottom of your suitcase or bag or
whatever because it's nice and fun so if
your legs hurt but hurt on the flight
this might be the item for you that's at
least worth trying it's been a lot of
fun to have yeah I don't know next item
next up is just a must-have item for any
flight that's over a couple hours that
is the eye mask it's already hard enough
to sleep on a plane but if you can block
out some of the light then that's gonna
just make it a little bit easier and all
those little bits add up to maybe you
potentially getting a little bit of rest
on your flight a lot of flights sound a
little something like this
that's not a problem when you have noise
cancelling headphones aren't these great
these are great what did you say the
only reason we were so hesitant to get
these is because they are so big and
bulky you guys and every little bit of
space counts for us but once we use them
on a flight one time we were hooked we
make the room it is 100% worth it get
some noise cancelling headphones
especially the over Year ones like this
because they work so well
you are welcome this next item is so
simple but it's completely changed long
especially long haul flights for us it
is the flight flap so you might be
wondering what the heck this little guy
is and how could this possibly be useful
on a flight well it's actually a
universal phone and iPad holder so you
just kind of fold it and then you can
set it on your tray table or you can
hang it over the tray table you can also
hang it on the seat in front of you so
one big issue we always had was that
we'd have our phone way down here and
our next would always hurt by the end of
the flight so now we put this bad boy on
the seat in front of us and then the
phone is at eye level and that's amazing
when they don't have a monitor for you
to watch they don't have been flying
their payment it's been absolutely
fantastic because you can get the little
stand on the back of your phone or iPad
or anything but the same thing it's
always down solo yeah we used to stack
up blankets and jackets and backpacks at
raggedy MacGyver did for a long time no
more now we have this really fancy super
sophisticated slightly this next tip
might seem like something obvious but
it's definitely something you need to
add to like your pre-flight checklist to
make sure you do it because we always
forget and that is to download way more
Netflix movies and shows than you think
that you need yeah even if the flight
has in-flight entertainment either
you've seen everything or there's not
that much exciting stuff where the
monitor just doesn't work oh we have
been on flights where the monitor
even turn on and that sucks but if you
download all the Netflix you have
exactly what you want when you want it
and you don't get disrupted when they
say everything over the intercoms
believe it on that blue okay believe it
or not on a lot of long-haul flights
they have no USB or power outlets on the
flight I can't every time you get on the
first thing we do is we search for it
and a lot of times I don't have it maybe
half the time yeah and then sometimes
you get on there and they have it but
they don't work that has happened so
many times to us so if you are
downloading Netflix or Hulu it'll drain
your body battery quickly even if you
turn it on airplane mode so that's why
we recommend having a backup power
supply which ours comes handily in our
suitcase so a lot of suitcases nowadays
have these power supplies built into
them and actually when you check your
luggage you have to pull these out
anyway so I'm gonna bring on the flight
and have some power but remember to
charge it ahead of time because then
it's just a heavy useless yeah add that
to your little pre-flight checklist as
well charge everything when you are on a
flight for eight plus hours and you add
in the time you spent in the airport all
this stuff you're eating a lot of food
and you're not brushing your teeth
typically things get gross you get gross
after that many hours so we always have
our toothpaste and toothbrush in our
carry-on bag regardless of where we're
going even on short flights I bring it
with me I just like feeling refreshed
when I land and not nasty and stale I
usually also have things like dry
shampoo body wipes so that you can you
know freshen up while you pop your face
and just feel it it makes a big
difference yeah cuz after so many hours
on a flight I'd say six and on you start
to feel really gross all that dry air
and you're all stuffed up there eating
nasty airline food the whole time and if
you've been sleeping your start and get
all greasy so just bring some little
hygiene things to make you feel better
and everyone around you will probably be
very happy about it next one is a super
quick tip just make sure to bring your
own blanket because a lot of these
flights they'll give you a blanket but
the blankets son they're always they're
not very warm they aren't washed so they
make your skin feel gross my skin will
break out from the chemicals that are on
the unwashed blanket so bring your own
blankets they can become yes and the
blanket can double as a
so if you don't have a good pillow or
you need more support can shove it up in
there roll up in it mine is also a towel
and it's a wrap for when I go swimming
so it's got so many uses our final tip
is to get up and move on a flight I am
blown away by so many people who come to
the airport and they sit before they get
on the flight and then they sit the
entire flight my body just cannot handle
sitting that long neither of us can a
lot of times they will say over the
loudspeaker not to crowd in those little
open areas but we've never been scolded
by the flight attendants for now
especially if you can find in in the
middle of the flights near the restrooms
there's a lot of space next to the
emergency exit door just make your own
little workout room yeah but do squats
do lunges tip your toes get your legs up
just moving around or just walk up and
got anyone you know yeah actually I'm
gonna throw in a bonus tip make sure to
drink more water than you think you need
and we've been actually trying to bring
on all of our own food on these
long-haul flights because the airline
food will mess you up
it messes us all too usually so cheesy
there's lots and lots of sugar they give
you so many desserts and it's all just
prepackaged so you make so much trash so
for us it works a lot better just for
your own stuff so those are our tips for
surviving long-haul flights if you guys
have any tips of your own though make
sure you leave a comment and let us know
let us know make our lives a lot easier
