BA285 LHR - SFO/ F Jet lag Tactics...

Hi everyone,

I have a trip coming up in March and wondered if anyone has any wisdom on jet lag tactics to the US West Coast?

We're flying in F on BA285 with a scheduled arrival of 14:45, we'd really like to get the most out of the arrival day and make the most of a dinner reservation that evening (without falling asleep at the table!)

Of course on the flip side we'd also like to get the most out of the F experience and don't wish to sleep the entire way...

Just wondered if anybody flies this route regularly and has an approach that works for them? Do you delay the meal until later in the flight? Curb the alcohol? Stay up late in the UK the night before the flight?

Your wisdom appreciated as always... @:-)
