After a 5 hour flight every joint in my body hurts. Most people dont seem to have this issue. What’s wrong with me?

Nothing is wrong with you. Flying sucks.

Choose an aisle or window seat to your preference, bearing in mind that one of the solutions to body soreness when airplane traveling is standing up for 10 mins every 30-40 mins.

If you can swing it, fly first class, since the seats are wider and you can more easily shift your body weight.

i usually pay more for extra legroom, but going up to 1st class is a big jump.
