I personally have found that traveling West to East is more problematic than traveling East to West, the latter generally causing me little trouble. The key in adjusting to traveling across several times zone from West to East is to force yourself to stay awake and active until 9:00 or 10:00 P.M. in the new time zone. Do NOT take a nap earlier in the day, even though you may be tempted. Then get a full night's sleep. When you wake up in the morning you should be good to go.

∙ 14y agoEastwards from Greenwich (this is 0º longitude) is to be added one by one meridian (as from London to Copenhagen [Denmark's capital city, in Northern Europe], for example, then +10º [+1 other line (the second) rightwards] to Belgrade [Serbia's capital city, in Eastern Europe] etc.). Westwards it´s to be subtracted, idem (as from London to Dacar [Senegal's capital city, in Western Africa], for example, then -10º [+1 other line (the second) leftwards] to Reykjavik [Iceland's capital city, in Northwestern Europe, but towards America]) and so on.
