good question as im about to fly there myself and dreading the boredom- im gunna take a good book but only start reading it when im half way-something to look forward to-the same on the way back-also take a pen and pad and make a list of what everyone else is doing on the plane that should make a few hours go by more entertaining- spend some time sleeping and eating and hopefully time will pass before u know it- have a safe and exciting journey


moominbadger
AArrggghh!!! It feels like forever!!! Um, the only advice I have is to watch ALL the movies, play ALL the games, eat lots, drink lots, and try to get some sleep!!!! You will get through it, honest!!

-Play "I Spy".
-As for random things from the flight attendants.
-See how many items such as emergency instructions, salt n pepper pots etc you can fit into your hand luggage.
-Perfect your "Aussie" accent. (Easier than it sounds.. keywords include : Cobbah, fair dinkum, mate, sheila & pint a Fosters darl!)
-Learn all the words to "Waltzing Matilda".

Where are you flying from? If the UK, I'd by plenty of magazines, a book, maybe an iPod. Watch the films and have a stroll around the aircraft and see if you can chat to the other passengers. if it's your first time to Australia then you can chat about what's it's like etc. passes a few hours. If your passing through Singapore then you may be able to get off the plane and do a quick bit of duty free. maybe buy something new, a camera maybe, that will keep your spirits up for the rest of the flight.

Watch the movies, read a good book or stupid stars magazines when you'll get brain-dead, sleep, eat, play games with someone who travels with you....

Watch movies all about plane crashes

Sleep and watch the films. It's not that bad a flight. At least you're not jammed in tiny spaces like on shorter-haul flights.

Make sure to drink plenty of water, it's quite dehydrating.

upgrade to first, maybe i've just been lucky but have been upgraded loads of times, i travel regularly to the US and gotta say nothing beats it....you can get a massage, manicure, go to sleep on a flat bed, sit at the bar and have a drink, watch flims, play computer. If thats not an option then i'm afraid it's just good books and a few drinks to help you sleep some of it away.


?
Take a book or two, a portable games console, sleep, watch the in flight movies, you can do a lot in 24 hours. But then again it depends on where you are flying from.


Rckets
Bring a laptop with a good power supply with lots of good DVD's to watch. Reading material and an IPOD would be great too.

watch the onboard movies...a laptop can entertain you for however long ur battery lasts...but the best thing to do on a long flight is pop a couple of advil and pass out for 6-8 hours or more...what is that about a 12-15 hour flight?
