I’m with cws, everyone seems to respond differently. But for me I would want to stay awake on the flight, avoid a really early start, and remember ‘tyre touching chocks!’ is not the same time as ‘head touching pillow’ time! You’ve still got to actually get into the country, through customs, whatever Covid theatre measures are in place, get to your accommodation and I like to unpack and have a shower when I arrive (otherwise when I wake up it feels like I have an ordeal rather than a nice clear morning ahead). I would set an alarm for not after 7AM the following morning. I also swear by going onto destination time as soon as I have boarded the flight.
