Many passengers want to sleep as soon as they sit down. However, flight attendants recommend staying awake during takeoff and landing. These are critical times that require everyone’s attention. Some people may also feel discomfort from pressure changes, causing nosebleeds or ear pain.
Flight attendants suggest chewing gum or sucking on hard candy before the plane climbs. These actions help balance ear pressure and make your flight more comfortable. Staying alert during these times also lets passengers respond quickly to any crew instructions, ensuring safety for all.
