Arrival Strategy for Manchester How to manage jetlag based on arrival time
Upon morning arrival, immediately expose yourself to natural daylight and engage in light physical activity to reset your internal clock and combat early fatigue.
Afternoon arrivals should avoid long naps and instead take a short 20-30 minute rest, followed by moderate outdoor activity to maintain wakefulness.
For evening arrivals, aim to stay awake until local bedtime, using strategic caffeine and light exposure to push through initial drowsiness.
