Show HN: I stopped trying to sleep on long-haul flights

Most advice about long-haul flights focuses on sleeping better. After years of trying (and failing), I realized the problem wasn’t discipline or gadgets — it was the goal itself. Sleeping well on planes, especially in economy class, is often unrealistic. Chasing it creates frustration and usually makes fatigue worse. I started reframing the problem around “functional arrival” instead: being able to think clearly, have usable energy, and not lose the first day after landing. I wrote down the framework I now use — focused on posture, sensory stability, timing, and post-arrival decisions — and published it as a long-form article. This is not medical advice, not biohacking, and not a promise of perfect sleep. It’s a way to make better decisions under fatigue. Happy to hear feedback or criticism.
