1. Get a window seat yourself.
2. Buy eyeshades. They are only $1 or so, weigh nothing and do not occupy any space.
3. Having daylight has your body adjust to local time more easily.
4. What times should the shades be closed? Wheels up to Wheels down or in between meal service or ? Maybe this guy got a full nights sleep not the night before or just doesn't need that much sleep. Why are you imparting your needs for an absolute black room to sleep in onto others?
