How do you sit through an airplane flight without excruciating pain? (lemmy.world)

After a 5 hour flight every joint in my body hurts. Most people dont seem to have this issue. What’s wrong with me?

I don't if the flight is long and it is bigger aircraft (two aisles: A350, 787, A380, 777, etc). I try to be up and moving around as much as possible. No booze. Eat light if at all. Drink water.

Do flights normally provide free drinking water? I am under the impression that passengers must buy bottled water in flight if they want to drink.

You can also bring an empty bottle to the airport and fill it (after the security checks of course) in the bathroom sink at the airport

I've never been on a long (trans ocean) flight with a major airline that charged for water.

If you are with a non budget airline, yes they do.

I have flown KLM, QANTAS, Singapore Airlines, Emeriats and they all do free drinks as part of the service even in the cheap Econ tickets.
