9 hour time difference, sleep or not sleep?

So tomorrow morning I'll fly with a -9 hour time difference, and I'm flying in the morning here and arrive at midnight local time, but that's begin evening there. What would be the best to do now. I was thinking, when I start flying it's evening on my destination, so would it be better to not sleep tonight, and start sleeping in the plane so my circadian rhythm is already getting accustomed to the new time zone? Or would I be better off just sleeping normal, flying, napping a bit on the plane cus its midnight for my normal time and when I arrive, sleep again(I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep then cus it be morning my time while the time there would be 9pm...) How do y'all deal with this? Thanks! --- **Post Details:** - **Subreddit:** r/travelhacks - **Author:** u/Beneficial-Memory598 - **Score:** 7 upvotes - **Comments:** 35 - **Posted:** 7/13/2025
