Crossing time zones into Amman (AMM) takes a toll — recovery has to be deliberate. Aircrew Travel plans Amman around the crew, not the other way round.
Timing light and sleep in Amman
Getting daylight at the right local time helps shift the body clock after landing at AMM. A dark, cool room does the rest.
Hydration, food and movement
Avoiding heavy late meals and alcohol protects the quality of sleep before the next duty out of AMM.
- Get daylight at the right local time in Amman
