Which is the fastest way to go? Most of us surely think the plane is. The seats are so soft that it is really comfortable to travel by plane. But is it very interesting to travel by plane? Different people have different ideas. For people who fly often in economy class (经济舱), the answer may be no. They felt tired and uncomfortable quite often because of the very small space. But according to Ron Soret, an airplane scientist, there are some ways to help us enjoy the journey better. Hope you will have an interesting air travel and enjoy the journey.
Sit near the front of the plane. When you choose seats, a seat near the front of the plane will help with a better ride. Soret says, "The front part of the plane is usually the most comfortable. You hardly feel the turbulence (湍流) if it is not very serious." Soret also says the front part of the plane is the quietest. Maybe you can enjoy reading a magazine or have a good sleep during the journey.
Taking an aisle (过道) seat is also a good choice. Soret says the aisle seats have bigger spaces. You can stretch your arms and legs to keep your body relaxed. It helps you feel less tired after the journey. But you have to stand up when other people in the same row want to go to the bathroom.
Be careful with the temperature. That is important, too. Temperatures in the plane are usually similar to those of your home town. That means you wear a T-shirt when you get on the plane, you may still just need a T-shirt when you are in the plane. If you are too cold, you can ask for a blanket.
