How coffee lovers can beat jet lag

Like cancelled flights, missed bookings, or finding out your baggage has been forwarded to Austria instead of Australia, jet lag is just the thing to get your trip off to a bad start.

We’ve touched on ways to prepare for and cope with this annoying travel condition before, but it turns out we were barely scratching the surface to jet lag avoidance tactics.

US travel expert Samantha Brown, who appears on the Travel Channel, has offered her advice regarding the expert tactics caffeine lovers can use to beat jet lag.

But it requires a little bit of self-control.

“No coffee (or any caffeine) two days before your flight,” says Ms Brown.

“When you arrive at your destination, push yourself until your body feels like cement. Then and only then, have an espresso. The caffeine will hit your system strong and will carry you through to the end of the day,” she adds.

Do you have any tips for getting the better of jet lag?
