11 hour flight.... what to do?
Discussion
I have an 11 hour flight tomorrow in economy (the shame), its with malaysia airlines.... so was thinking what do people do cramped up in a small tincan for such a length of time???
Sleeping aint an option as im not the most avid fan of flying... (the things i do for the OH).
Drinking also aint an option as i dont like to get drunk on planes and spend most of the time peeing, done that before going to spain....
What are malaysia airlines like to fly and for entertainment?

Play card games with random passengers
Start up a conversation with the person next to you and invent a completely new identity
Tell people not to eat the inflight meal, as you used to work at the providers you know what they've done to it
Take sleeping passengers ipods from them and swap around with someone elses. Same for luggage in the racks, stuff up at the front - move it to the back of the plane
Or just take a load of sleeping tablets and be done with it

Watch some films? (not sure what Malaysian airlines are like but Virgin and ANZ have a good system where you can choose what films you want to watch from the database, pause it when you need the toilet, fast forward or rewind....)
Play with the DS, PSP?
Read some magazines?
Kick the person in front?
Sneak your way into FC or BC even better go see the captain
I have an 11 hour flight to LA next month
Wonder if i could get some sleeping pills??

Get to the very back, and sit on the fold-down cabin-crew seats, by the cabin crew restroom doors. Bags of legroom, and it's slightly less boring, as many folk like to walk around there, and the cabin crew pass frequently, and they look after a familiar face. That's what I do anyway, as I struggle to sleep seated.

Are you sure you can't sleep? I would get up uber-early (or stay up if it's an early flight) so you are shattered when you get on. Then, enjoy the food (when I flew MAS back in '99 it was lovely!) and have a cup of tea/coffee to finish with a shot of something in it (sugary tea with whiskey for me, for instance) and zonk... sound asleep for the majority of the flight. Make sure you're comfortable - no shoes/stretchy trousers if you're fat like me/ear-plugs/blindfold/fluffy handcuffs etc. and wake up just in time for the descent. Lovely.
Do a Barry Humphries (this may be a myth).
Smuggle aboard one tin of potato salad (ring pull top).
Empty contents of tin into sickbag and return bag to seat pocket without being seen.
Feign illness.
Feign gagging ensuring that as many passengers around you notice.
Grab sickbag and pretend to vomit into it.
Produce plastic spoon from pocket.
Eat bag contents while fellow passengers watch.

PSP is the best option
If they have this at the airport it's good:
