Long-haul flights can be a test of endurance, but one experienced flight attendant has shared a brilliant trick to help passengers maximise their space and comfort in the air.
The secret to extra legroom
According to the cabin crew member, the key to creating more room lies in a simple adjustment to the seatback pocket. Instead of using it for magazines or personal items, passengers can fold it upwards to free up precious legroom.
Why this works
The clever hack works because most seatback pockets are designed to be flexible. By folding them up, you effectively gain several extra inches of space for your legs to stretch out.
Additional comfort tips
- Choose your seat wisely: Opt for emergency exit rows or bulkhead seats when possible
- Pack smart: Keep essentials in a small bag under the seat to avoid constant overhead bin access
- Move regularly: Take short walks down the aisle to improve circulation
- Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to combat the dry cabin air
This simple yet effective trick could make all the difference on your next long-distance flight, turning an uncomfortable journey into a more pleasant experience.
