How to Use Uppy on Flights: Your Complete Hydration Schedule for the Skies

Flying can leave you feeling tired, puffy, and jet-lagged — all signs of dehydration. Between the dry cabin air and long hours sitting still, your body loses fluids and electrolytes faster than you think. That’s where Uppy!, your 4 oz / 120 ml hydration shot, comes in.

This guide shows you exactly how to use Uppy! during flights — whether you’re crossing time zones on a long-haul overnight or just hopping between cities during the day.

🕕 Daytime Flights: Stay Sharp & Energized

Short-Haul (Under 4 Hours):

  • Dissolve drink mix 1 tablet of Uppy! about 30 minutes before your flight in 4 oz (120 ml) of still water.

  • If you feel sluggish mid-flight, dissolve a second tablet halfway through to stay focused and alert.

Long-Haul (Over 6 Hours):

  • Dissolve 1 drink mix tablet before boarding to pre-hydrate.

  • During the flight, dissolve 1 tablet every 2–3 hours to replenish electrolytes and fight travel fatigue.

  • Dissolve your final tablet after landing to rehydrate and help your body adjust faster to your new environment.

💡 Tip: Uppy’s light Lemon-Lime flavor and low sugar (only 2g!) make it easy to sip even when your appetite is low mid-air.

🌙 Overnight Flights: Beat Jet Lag Before It Starts

Before Takeoff:

  • Dissolve 1 tablet right after boarding in 4 oz (120 ml) of water to start hydrated.

  • Avoid alcohol or caffeine close to takeoff — they dehydrate you and disturb sleep.

Mid-Flight:

  • As cabin humidity drops, your body loses moisture while you sleep. Dissolve 1 tablet halfway through the flight (set a reminder or ask the crew for water) - or - get a water bottle and dissolve 2-3 tablets and sip throughout the flight.

  • Uppy! helps keep your muscles and brain hydrated, reducing that heavy, groggy feeling upon arrival.

Upon Arrival:

  • Dissolve 1 tablet immediately after landing to reset your body clock and energy levels.

  • Step outside and get sunlight — hydration + light are your jet lag recovery power combo.

🌍 Why Timing Matters

Hydration isn’t just about how much water you drink — it’s when you drink it.
The Uppy! Hydration Timeline follows your natural rhythm:

Time Action Benefit
Wake-up / Pre-flight 1 tablet Start hydrated before dehydration hits
In-flight (every 2–3 hrs) 1 tablet (or see suggestion above) Replace lost electrolytes & reduce fatigue
Post-flight 1 tablet Recover faster and reduce jet lag
