[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bus will put some of your party to sleep most likely. I think that's okay if they fell asleep at 2 or 3. If they fall asleep at 10am that will prolong jetlag. A nap on a bus or even a short nap in a bed is okay IME. It's the 4+ hour conk out in the middle of the day that isn't good. [/quote] Yes if you have only slept for maybe 2 hours on the flight, I don't think sleep under 2 hours once you land will mess you up too much. We did that on a pre-kids trip and got into our hotel early and slept from 9 AM to 11 AM, then stayed active until 9 PM. Worked well. Something I did on my last trip was start shifting my sleep time by 30-45 minutes every night for around 5 days before the trip. Definitely helped, by the day of flight I was waking up over 2 hours earlier than normal. helped me fall asleep quickly on the flight that night, and adjust faster after landing. Probably harder to do with kids though.[/quote]
