Restaurants at the airport have updated their menus to include dishes designed to put travelers in a better mood. Frankie and Benny's, for example, has added a salmon citrus salad that promises to improve brain function, while Lebanese chain Comptoir's falafel and fattoush salad is meant to keeps blood sugar levels steady.

The importance of nutrition for flying is gaining recognition, Kallau believes. He points to innovations such as the FlyFit 'fatigue fighting' juice range, which claims to improve blood flow, and is now sold at 50 airports.
Opportunities for serotonin-boosting exercise are also growing at airports. At Amsterdam's Schiphol and Brussels Airport, passengers can recharge their phones with power generated from riding indoor bikes.
Such progress is welcomed by Geirthrudur Alfredsdottir, a pilot with Icelandair and editor of the Fit to Fly website which offers health advice for travelers.


Exercise machines at airports used to charge portable electronic device batteries, and to keep passengers healthy, happy and tired.
