Sadly I'm really bad at sleeping on the plane so I generally prefer east to 
west. Most times I fall asleep just after the plane gets up in the air and 
sleep until about the time the drinks cart comes, so maybe 20-30 minutes total, 
then I'm awake the rest of the flight. Not so bad for a 6 hour flight to LA but 
annoying on a 12 hour flight to Tokyo.Fortunately on the way out I slept about 
2 hours in the airport in Tokyo which is a first for me. Imagine the adrenaline 
hit when I awoke to see the plane was boarding. That actually worked out 
perfectly. I took a second to get my head together, got up and walked directly 
onto the plane. I generally like being one of the last people to get on...

West to East is always the easiest as long as you sleep on the plane.  I always 
hated he general feeling or “fuzziness” after I returned from an overseas 
flight.

Best thing to do is to get out in the sun as much as possible as soon as you 
return.  It re-syncs your circadian rhythms….
