Sky High Exercise Tips
 
More people than ever before travel by airplane nowadays, and more airlines are starting to offer longer non-stop flights. With the addition of modern aircraft, airlines have started scheduled ultra long-haul services of up to eighteen hours. Some examples of such flights are Singapore-Newark, Bangkok-New York and Dubai-New York.

Such long travel times mean sitting in the same position for a very long time, which can be bad for the blood circulation. This makes the need for http://www.secretsofthehealthy.com>exercise tips even more crucial to the travelling public. While business and first class passengers have plenty of personal space around their chair, and even can turn their seats into comfortable beds in many cases, coach class passengers especially, run the risk of getting DVT or deep vein thrombosis.

Many airlines recognise this modern problem and warn their passengers of the risks of remaining in the same position for many hours. In their in-flight magazines they mention the risks and give tips and advice on how to fight the chance of getting thrombosis. Generally, it is advised to do some simple exercises once an hour or so to keep the blood circulation moving. Exercise tips are moving the toes up and down, stretching the legs as far out as possible, and pointing the toes, and rocking left and right in the chair, clenching and unclenching the muscles. Stretching the arms and wiggling fingers, while rotating the wrist, will keep blood flowing in the arms. Ideally passengers should also get out of their seats and walk around, but flight attendants doing their in-flight service and blocking the aisles might make this somewhat difficult.

The airlines' efforts to minimise the risk for passengers come directly because of concerns for lawsuits. At various times passengers have made claims against airlines regarding the development of blood circulation problems in the body, supposedly because of frequent flying on longer sectors. The airline business, just like any other, is about making money. The main revenue is made by passengers travelling in first and business class who, in return for the high fares, get comfortable seats with all kinds of amenities and a full service. Economy class passengers, who often pay a fraction of business class fares, travel in much smaller seats and with less legroom in the part of the cabin which they themselves often refer to as "cattle class." While the seat pitches, the distance between seats, differ from airline to airline, they are somewhere in the 29 to 32 inches range. Passengers complain about the limited legroom, while airlines don't want to increase seat pitches for the simple fact that they would have to decrease the number of seats in the cabin, and by that earn less money.

Most major carriers now do compensate economy class passengers in another way, for example by offering personal TV-screens for their entertainment during long flights. And some have introduced a fourth seating class, between economy and business, offering more room, but not the service of business class.

Perhaps the invaluable advice of drinking plenty of fluids while flying, (not alcohol), is the best exercise tip of all. Since walking to the lavatory and back several times is probably the best exercise a passenger can get at thirty five thousand feet.
