What are Night Flights?
A night flight is a flight that departs from 10 p.m. (22:00) onwards. Night flights are perfect for travellers who wish to get some rest on the flight as the flight departure time matching most people's sleeping pattern. Depending on the destination, night flights don't always arrive at the arrival airport in the morning. It is, therefore, different from a red-eye flight.

How to Cope with Night Flights Tips
Comfortable Clothing
If you wish to take a nap on the flight, making yourself warm and comfy on the flight is essential for a good rest. Space is often restrained when you are sitting in Economy Class, so making yourself comfy is important. Loose clothing is the most suitable for flying, this could be jeans, shorts or t-shirts. The important, however, is to wear whatever you feel comfortable with.
Bring A Few Accessaries
The aircraft cabin is often noisy and sometimes bright from the reading lights. Sometimes airlines would provide an amenity kit to passengers, but not all do. So bringing your own will ensure you have something when you needed. Things like eye masks, earplugs, blanket, socks or a neck pillow are appropriate and potentially make a difference.
Prebook Your Seat
Seating on the window seat always means that you are less likely to be disturbed, as sitting on the middle seat or aisle seat may have to give way to your fellow passengers. At Alternative Airlines, you can pre-book your seat during the booking process. You can also check out our blog on 'Top 6 Reasons To Pre-Book Seats' to find out more.

Night Flights FAQs
Are night flights safe?
Yes, they are safe! Pilots are trained to fly at night and rely on their instruments when in the cloud or when visibility is low. All commercial aircraft has radar systems and advanced navigation systems to guide the plane and notify pilots of any hazards ahead. In order to maintain their license, pilots are required to fly a certain amount of night hours too.
Are night flights smoother?
Night flights are usually smoother and passengers often experience less turbulence compared to a day flight. Evening and early mornings are usually less windy, which means turbulence is less likely to occur and the chance of thunderstorm would reduce.
Are night flights less crowded?
Usually, night flights are less crowded as it is late at night and curfews of the airport apply. Most of the short-haul flights would have stopped as fewer people travel on short-haul at night compared to long-haul / red-eye flights.
