What makes a book a good airplane read?

So what do you do when you are on a 10-hour-long flight all nervous and anxious, sitting on an uncomfortable seat with children crying in the background and with the loud engine noise? You find solace in reading a good book to kill time.

Some people bring 2-3 books to have options during a flight, while others tend to keep their luggage light and prefer ebooks.

Do you know a book’s qualities to make it a good airplane read? If not, don’t worry; below are some points that will answer your question thoroughly.

A story that makes your flight seem as quick as it is

Good airplane books can make the flight seem shorter and less chaotic than it is.

Nothing to basic

If you are on a long flight, the last thing you would want is to read a monotonous book. At times like these, it is better to read something adventurous that makes you want to finish the book without any breaks. In my opinion, a good choice would be to read books with fictional stories that have mysteries in them.

Something short

Try to take books you know you can finish on that flight, so you are not left wondering what will happen if you don’t have time to read while you are away. Short books have the power to transform your life in just a few hours completely.

Nothing concerning mishaps or accidents

People often tend to be nervous on flights, so stories that trigger their anxieties should be avoided. Instead, they should read something relaxing and calm to pass the time on a flight.

So next time you are on a flight and manage to get your hands on a page-turner, you won’t find your flight seems long and tedious.
