well if you consider working as entertainment like I do. Take a laptop, plugin to the airlines internet :)

Doesn't mean you HAVE to switch it off, though.

From now on, I'm going to leave it on out of spite. :)

crossword puzzles or logic puzzles.
those are always fun :)
how about a deck of cards?

I have a routine I usually follow as I fly quite often from LA to Europe.

1a) Get on plane, get situated in either first or business (if lucky - wife works for United so I get the best seats available)

1b) If I end up in coach - I immediately get depressed, pop a anti jet-lag and sleep the whole way - if I cant fall asleep from pill - hate the whole way.

2a) If 1a was where I ended up I enjoy a nice drink before the flight takes off. Then read a little, get served a nice meal (super meal if in first) and watch the first movie of my choice. Have dessert, coffee with bailys and pass out until about 1,5 hours before landing.

2b)If in first - lay down the seat completely into a bed and sleep sleep and sleep.

Easy as that. Leaving for Sofia tomorrow morning - should be fun. Enjoy Amster!

Hmm usually our trips are short hauls 2-4 hours... I will generally bring with me a laptop, a few magazines and have a few beers with Magnus on the flight. This trip I am bringing all that is above plus my PSP (+ my new kickass 5 hour battery pack for the PSP).

The flight is only 7.5 hours for us from Toronto so it's only about 1.5 hours longer than a flight down to San Diego/LA.

Taking the great arc will take you over Greenland and Iceland. Be sure to bring a camera as the landscape is awesome from 35,000 ft. You can see all the ice and glaciers if the sun is up. A truely awe inspiring view.

I party hard a few days before i'm leaving without sleep, works like a charm.

LSD, All the "Family Guy" DVDs that you can find, and a ride waiting for you at Schipol, to take you right to the Green House in the RLD. You should get there right around when they open.

Lens,

We leave tomorow for Europe. I love the new Luftansa Direct flight from Portland to Frankfurt. Luftansa has high speed net onboard and only like 29.00 for a 9-10 hr. flight. I can't wait to try it out tomorow.

books, movies - depends on the entertainment of the airline

Movies on laptop: 2 hours
Music on laptop: 1 hour
Magazines/books: 1 hour
Sleep 3 hours
Masturbating and molesting the girl next to me (ranging from footsie to fingering): 3 hours

If it's a 3 hour flight I skip the movies, music, magazine, books and sleep.

LAX to Amsterdam has never been 10 hours. What line/plane are you taking?

my iPod, sleep, a good book, and my laptop where I can write articles.

KLM uses 777 from sfo to ams. so that mean video on demand for all seats, and quite a few movies. oddly KLM does not have power at any of the seats yet.

here's a great tip from a pilot. Wear ear plugs, this is the number 1 thing (besides sleep) that will help you get over jet leg.

I'd bring Ramos - have him pack three or four different outfits in his carryon and turn him loose about 45 mins after takeoff. It'll be more entertaining than any dvd.

I always bring my mp3 and my gameboy when i am travelling.
