LONDON (Reuters) - British Airways has called in a specialist to find a cure for jet-lag, potentially a dream come true for sleep-deprived frequent flyers.
Sleep researcher Dr. Chris Idzikowski will spend the next six months studying the best way to snooze at 30,000 feet as well as tricking passengers' body clocks to cope with time zone changes.
"There is definitely a way of controlling the biological clock by avoiding or exposing oneself to light, and we want to see if we can find a way of teaching passengers how to do it," Idzikowski told Reuters Wednesday
