Jet lag Jet lag is a common problem for travelers who cross multiple time zones. Symptoms include agitation, insomnia, poor concentration, and generalized fatigue. Adjustment usually takes 1 day for each time zone crossed (eg, 5 days to adapt to crossing five time zones). Before a long trip, travelers can begin the adjustment process by going to bed 1 hour earlier or later each day for every time zone to be crossed, which helps entrain new circadian rhythms. Other preventive measures include avoiding alcohol and carbonated drinks before and during a flight, minimizing dehydration by drinking six to eight 8-oz glasses of water or fruit juice daily, and allowing for a flexible, relaxing schedule after arrival at the destination.
