As a frequent flier I'd say the most important thing is what you do before and after your flight, not during. Go in well hydrated (get those electrolytes!) and well rested. If you're flying far east/west, adjust your eating and sleeping ahead of going, to make sure the adjustment is not so hard on arrival. If you're arriving in the morning, try to sleep on the plane... if you're arriving in the evening, don't sleep on the plane. Additionally, when you arrive, wait until the appropriate time to sleep/eat as not to prolong jet lag.
My wife and I bring water bottles we can fill up after going through security, and packs of pedialyte powder to mix into it.
Heh, we do the same. I appreciate that Changi airport has bottle-filling fountains at every gate.
I really appreciate Haneda airport for having bottle scanners, so you can just bring your filled bottles through security. Saw this at an airport in Europe, too, but can't remember where (domestic Athens maybe?).
The food thing really is a game changer.
Adjust your meals to match the meal time where you’re going day or two ahead of time.
Your body will respond.
That requires a good travel pillow to avoid a massive crick in the neck that can produce immense pain.
Drip drops. Thank me later.
Yeah, this kind of thing. We have pocari sweat powder.
