Meghan Markle always follows this routine when flying to avoid getting jet leg and travel sick

US actress and future royal Meghan Markle is used to travelling for work.
She shared her secrets on beating jet lag and sickness in a blog, which is being recirculated from her now-closed website, The Tig.
Invest in a hand sanitiser, a high-strain probiotic, and hydrate like you’re dying of thirst, she advised.

Many people would agree that the reality of travelling for work is a lot less glamorous than it might sound. And it appears that US "Suits" actress and future royal Meghan Markle knows this all too well.

A post she wrote about travel essentials on her former lifestyle blog The Tig in 2016 has been circulating online again — and it reveals some details about the routine she follows when she boards a plane. Here's an archived version of the post.

"If you’ve been tracking my social media of late, you’ll notice that not a week goes by without me finding my derrière on a plane," she wrote.

"Yes, it’s fun, and yes, it’s purpose-driven, and yes, it can sometimes feel quite glamorous; but, jet-setting (for work or pleasure) comes with its own set of complications. The foremost issue is self-care.

"It’s easy to run yourself ragged, hopping from one locale to another, sometimes feeling homesick, and other times just feeling plain-old sick (tummy, head cold, you name it)," she went on.

So, Markle shared some trusty travel tips with her readers — and some of them might well come in handy on your next flight.
