Hydration drink for Flyers !
Wondering how many of you guys will like to have a beverage specially designed for the High Flyers ? I am working on a natural beverage which will take some of the kick off the Jet leg. Not a sugar or caffeine laden drink, but something more healthy packed with nutrients. Will you like this in soda OR juice OR flavored water style ?^

Are you thinking of a powder that is mixed in a liquid you buy post security? Or a drink you consume at home after the flight? Or are you going for broke and not only developing a new drink in an already competitive market but also one that airport shops would sell?

Non-alcoholic beer. I'm not kidding. In Germany it's advertised as "Isotonic Sports drink"

In grand scheme of things, you are right ! Now, you don't sweat when you fly, correct ? You can use sport drinks, but they are not designed for it. Its more like apples and oranges. What you need is a customized energy boost designed to specifically target jet lag symptoms. Now, we all know the perfect solution... not to fly at all ! But, that ain't happening either.

actually, water works just fine. On a long haul flight where I'm most likely to be prone to dehydration, the last thing I want is some energy boost product. I want to sleep.
