I WISH I could do this. You have a rare gift.

  The trick is believing. Expect to fall asleep as soon as you are on the plane, eat before boarding and avoid coffee. I could never do it until I could. Now I start yawning at the gate.

    > The trick is believing. For those that lack belief, Valium or Xanax should do the trick too. I don't fly international often enough to worry about getting hooked, so 2 pills (one to sleep on the plane and one to force myself to sleep at the right time once I reach my destination) have always made jet lag a easy for me.

      You Americans are such extremists :). Straight to the hard stuff. Valerian root works pretty well (especially with a small nip) and there are some other lighter options like melatonin. Also sugar pills :) Doctors here don't give you Xanax unless you're having panic attacks.
