I've spent 190 hours on long-haul flights. I have 11 rules for surviving 6-plus hours stuck in economy.

I've picked up 11 tips I swear by for surviving long-haul economy flights, like what to pack and how to stay comfortable throughout a lengthy journey.

Joey Hadden, a Business Insider reporter, shares her top tips for surviving long-haul flights in economy class. She emphasizes the importance of packing the essential items in her carry-on, including overnight essentials, layers of clothing, and a neck pillow for comfort. Hadden also advises bringing her own food, entertainment, and water bottle to avoid relying on airline-provided meals and snacks, which may not be sufficient during long journeys.

Additionally, she recommends booking an aisle seat for easy movement throughout the flight and considering premium economy for added comfort during extended travel.
