One of the simple rules I follow is to have a good meal before getting on a plane, and it doesn’t really matter that its late at night. Its going to be a decently long flight with not too much sleep so I had a hearty meal just before heading to the airport, and I’m probably going to relax when sitting on my seat. The flight is simple, late night flight to Dubai, 2-3 hour lay over, then 8 hour flight to Singapore, luckily the Emirates ticket turned out to be reasonably priced compared to other airlines. And I know I’m going to sleep on the long flight after that good meal.
