The Link Between Travel and Bad Sleep (And How to Break It)
EZSLEEPS
You’re exhausted. You want to sleep. But when you travel - you just… can’t.
What’s Actually Going On?
Your brain doesn’t fully relax in unfamiliar environments. It’s a survival instinct, not a personal flaw.
Combine that with cramped spaces, dry cabin air, noise, and bad posture - and it’s no surprise your sleep suffers.
Common Travel Sleep Killers
Poor neck support
Light and noise exposure
Caffeine too close to flight
Lack of wind-down time before boarding
Travel-Friendly Sleep Tips That Actually Work
Use a sleep mask + noise blockers
Support your neck and chin
Avoid looking at your phone 30 mins before boarding
Schedule “buffer sleep” before and after travel
Traveling shouldn’t mean sacrificing rest. Take back control of your sleep even 30,000 feet in the air.
