Hello.

I will be doing my first RTW trip next week. I'll be flying biz class on United and Lufthansa.

This is a work trip and my itinerary is as follows:

Mon 3/13 depart 11am SFO-ORD
Tues 3/14 and Wed 3/15 work
Thurs 3/16 depart 12pm ORD-NRT
Fri 3/17 arrive NRT 5pm
Sat 3/18 and Sun 3/19 work
Mon 3/20 depart 10:30 am NRT-FRA, arrive 2:00 pm
Tues 3/21 and Wed 3/22 work
Wed 3/22 depart 11pm FRA-CDG, arrive 12:00am
Thurs 3/23 and Fri 3/24 work
Sat 3/25 depart 12:30 pm CDG-IAD, arrive 3:15pm
Sat 3/25 depart 5pm IAD-SFO, arrive 8pm

So, what advice do you have? I'm pretty good about sleeping on planes and would prefer not to take a sleeping pill (have never done that before and don't know how I'll react) or drink (just don't like to drink on planes).

When should I eat, sleep, stay awake, etc.? Advice appreciated!
