Everyones Entitled To My Opinion

I've been making plane trips since I was 7 years old, so trust me on this when I say it is almost MANDATORY to bring some sort of musical entertainment if you want to ensure you are properly entertained.
They play movies, but most of the time it is very hard to stay concentrated on them due to all that is going on around you, such as the passenger to your left/right(depending on if you are flying coach), the screen quality is somewhat terrible and plus you have to pay $10(or $5) on earphones that aren't that wonderful to begin with,especially since you'll be hearing the loud "roaring" noise coming from the plane.
Bring a magazine or 5. Depending on how long your flight is, Magazines are wonderful, or even a book to read. I don't remember getting motion sickness, so if your a little sensitive to motion sickness, I don't know if that would be a good recommendation.
If at all possible, bring your own pillow or an extra fluffy jacket because the airplane pillows absolutely SUCK.
Ooh! Crossword Puzzles/Soduko . Those are great too.
If anything, visit your nearest Toy Store and visit the Hobby section, I'm sure there will be card games galore, little knickknacks to build/put together, a coloring book(if you're older than 18, I apologize for that one), buy a blank notebook and write down every little thing that happens on the plane.
Use your imagination. Just think, you'll be sitting in that chair for a long time(depending on your flight) so try to pack up on any little thing to keep yourself occupied because once you run out of things to do, I hope you're a heavy sleeper because In my opinion, I find it very hard to sleep on those planes, which is always a last resort.
Hope I could help.
Have a nice flight.

Vandalise the sleeping old man next to you by drawing on his face with a magic marker
Spill you drink on someone's trousers and tell them you think they've just had an accident

I always try and get on tired so that I can sleep. There are magazines to read or you can take your own book or puzzles. There will be a movie , there will be a meal and take a couple of walks around the aisle. Also often there will be someone rather interesting to talk to.

1. At the airport, wear a uniform and claim you are the pilot, get annoyed if they don't believe you but DONT give up, see how far you can get ( WARNING, may result in you being arrested)

2. Whilst boarding the plane, say in a loud voice "THAT WING SURE DOES LOOK RUSTY!!"

3. When everyone is seated, do your own demonstration of what to do in an emergency, let this include 'comical' situations such as "in the (likely) event of the plane setting alight and becoming a plummeting fireball of death, please remember to tighten your seatbelt" look surprised when you are the only one laughing.

4. when the plane is still on the ground, Rock back and forth in your seat and say aloud "THIS TURBULANCE SURE IS ROUGH!!"

5. Wear rags and a headscarf, claim that your name is Svetolafoson Frojhkyhkjuhjdj and that you are being deported back to Estonia, look pleased when your told that this plane is not going there. say "Really?!, u haf not met me if zey ask zen, ok?!"

6. As the plane is landing, adopt the 'Duck and Cover' position as you scream "WE ARE GOING TO CRASH! ONLY DEATH AWAITS US ALL NOW! DEATH I TELLS YA!!!!" when you land safely, stand up and leave the plane normally, thank the stewardess for a lovely flight.

7. Go in to the toilet and make loud vomiting noises, keep going for a few minutes, then come out and announce to the plane that the toilet is blocked, act like its not your fault.

8. Stand up and ask the passengers if anyone " wants to join the mile high club with you?" wink suggestively at various people...of both sexes.

9. Get the pilot to show you round the cockpit, come out afterwards and say "YOU WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGH HE COULD FLY THE PLANE AFTER SO MUCH VODKA BUT IT JUST SHOWS, THEY REALLY ARE TRUE PROFESIONALS!".

10. Delight your fellow passengers with your impression of a plane crashing in to the sea, complete with sound effects.

11. Enthrall your companions on the plane by telling them that you knew the pilot of Buddy Holly's plane and you're pretty sure he trained at the same place as your current pilot.

12. Give a fact filled guide of the area you are flying over, this can include " And if you look to your right you will see the wreckage of our sister plane, after she was shot at and subsequently crashed in to that mountain side which, as you can see, her burnt out hull remains embedded in, the bodies were never found.'

13. Streak.

14. Occasionally scream........loudly.

15. Get up and announce that you are going to hi-jack the plane, make to get out a gun, but act like its not there, check all your pockets and then say " OH CRAP, I MUST HAVE LEFT IT IN THE OTHER COAT, OK, NEVER MIND!" Sit down like nothing has happened.

16. From the second you take off, every ten seconds say in the same voice "are we there yet?"

17. Keep sniffing around and eventually say in a loud voice "CAN YOU SMELL BURNING?"

18. Go to the cockpit, wait a few second, then come back and say in a loud voice, "UMM SHOULD'NT THERE BE...LIKE....A PILOT?"

19. When your on a small, ten person plane, Inform everyone that you used to be an aerodynamic engineer and this plane is VERY badly built.

20. As you get of the plane, look worried and announce loudly" VAIT A MINUTE, VOT IZ ZIS PLACE?! ZIS IZ NOT POLAND, VERE ZE HELL IZ ZIS?!?!?!?"

21. If you're flying first class, make sure to sit behind someone. When that person is sleeping, grap your motion sickness bag and vomit in it. After you do that, hold the bag in the air and then pop it on the person. See what happens......

deanpikey

you could dress up like a shifty looking muslim fanatic who keeps mumbling under his breath versus from the holy book .That should keep you and the other 200 passengers occupied for the full trip.
hope this helps.

Ok, I got Best Answer and told this to another person.
A lunch bag or cooler (small one) if you don't want to pay for plane food.
A portable DVD player with all your fave DVDs,laptop (if you want it and have one) so you could do a little work or play games, check your email etc. An iPod, MP3 player, CD player. Magazine or books. Some activity books like word searches, soduko. . A small blanket and pillow to take a nap.
If people make a couple new friends. Make sure you don't let anyone borrow you're stuff especially if you just met them, unless its family
Brin a blank book, sketchbook and sketch you're scenery around you. Have a note book too and writed down things you see to go alog with the pics or play tic-tac-toe with the person next you. Bring small portable chess, cards, or checkers (the checkers are magnetic).

Have a great trip and next time take me! =P LOL

it depends on what airline you're going on. Most aircrafts have an entertainment system, so you can watch TV and movies and play games. But if not, bring a book, an mp3, portable DVD player, a pack of cards, if you're travelling with family. You could also just sleep:)

Im stuck in your brain

1) read a book - unless you get motion sick, then that's a bad idea, there are vomit bags in the pocket in front of you.

2) sleep - very noisy so hard to do, but if you can this is the best option.

3) have a stimulating conversation with your neighbor - this is hard because your seatmate may be a crazy person with a twitchy eye who jumps at every loud noise who is so annoying you want to open the emergency exit and shove him out.

4) close your eyes and imagine you're on a beach far, far away, with nobody in sight - delusion seems to work for my parents, you should give it a try.
