For 5-6 hour flights, it's usually a combination of things for me: - Videos related to whatever technology will be pertinent at the meeting I'm flying in for.

For 5-6 hour flights, it's usually a combination of things for me: - Videos related to whatever technology will be pertinent at the meeting I'm flying in for. - Distraction movies: Bourne Identity, etc. - Anime I'm currently binge-watching. - Games on my phone. - Printed technical articles I've been procrastinating about reading. Honestly, how virtuous/edifying my in-flight activities are depends on how much sleep I got the night before. This is one reason I dislike early-morning flights - they leav me zonked and unable to make good use of my in-flight solitude. Side note: On Android, I just discovered "Movies Anywhere". It was a great tool for downloading DRM's movies/shows for my last trip.
