** We are well aware that sleep and bedtime is different for everyone, but this is what works for us! 😉
TIP: Use the time on the flight to help adjust to a new time zone. This means:
🕥 Adjust wake windows and plan sleep schedules to help you get “on time” with the time zone of your destination.
🥱 This could mean skipping a nap during a flight, pushing it back or forward, or attempting to sleep for during a red eye flight.
Example 1️⃣: Flying from Seattle to the UK on a flight that leaves Seattle at 6pm & lands in the UK at 11am - We would stay awake for roughly an hour+ of the flight and attempt to sleep the remainder of the flight. Because we are waking up in the new timezone mid-day, we would skip our nap so we were ready for bedtime in the UK.
Example 2️⃣: Flying from US West Coast to Hawaii (2 or 3 hrs behind) - Pushing the nap back 1 or 2 hours (or taking an extra nap) may be necessity in order make it through the extra long day.
*Scenarios based on a 2 or 3 year old toddler who takes 1 midday nap a day.
