13 Secrets to Surviving an International Flight

Airline food gets a bad rap. In-flight meals can be tasty, but they are still heavy on the carbs and light on the fresh veggies. When you let it sink in that you will be spending the better part of your day stuck in an airplane, one in-flight meal and a couple bags of pretzels are only going to get you so far. For international flights, you should plan on getting to the airport two hours early anyway, so take the extra time (after navigating the never-ending security line) to find a fresh, healthy meal that you can enjoy either before or shortly after you board.
