Keeping boredom at bay during Cruise?
So on those 2 to 5 hour plus flights especially, across the good ole USA during cruise flight, how do you keep boredom at bay?
Study? Nap? Music? Talk? Read? Stare out the window? Eat? Ipad shows? Bathroom breaks? I think it’s good to mix it up.

How exactly are you deadheading or jumpseating?

When we have three pilots for a long int’l trip, when I’m not flying, that’s called jumpseating.
