How to Pass Time While Travelling for Long Hours

When traveling on long journeys, sometimes it feels like the hours are just dragging by. But using some of these steps, you can kill time.

Get a pen and some paper. You can use these to play all kinds of games such as X and O, name-place-animal-thing and many more. If you don't have anyone to play with, try doodling. Also, try to find a small, fold-away travel game such as chess which you could play with someone else.

Bring a few magazines or newspapers along or read the in-flight magazine or sales catalog if you're on a plane. Carry your own magazines or newspaper while you are travelling in Bus or Train.

Bring along an MP3 player or iPod and listen to your favorite songs. On long and crowded plane or coach trips, you could use music to drown out background noise and help you get to sleep.

Bring a portable DVD player or Tab, Laptop to watch a movie.

Bring a portable gaming system or cell phone to play games. If you are a gamer, buy a new game or two before you go and start them during the trip.

Do some crosswords or puzzles. Not only will you pass time, but you will also be exercising your brain.

Look out the window and enjoy the scenery.

Sleep! It is the best way to pass time, especially on long flights, train or bus journey.

Count the number of a certain thing as you travel, if you're in a car. (yellow cars, fast food restaurants, Volkswagen's, or license plates from different regions) If you're in an airplane, count how many people walk down the aisle, count the clouds, etc.

Listen to an audio book. If you love a good story but reading makes you feel carsick, or if you're the one driving, this is a great alternative.

Have a conversation with someone you are traveling with.
