Noise-canceling headphones. Eye mask (some planes might provide one, but get a nice one that fits you). A good mask (planes can be very low-humidity so even if you aren't worried about anything else, this can help keep you more comfortable).

Wear loose-fitting clothing (except compression socks if that's something you want to do) or otherwise comfy clothing.

Other than that, get up and stretch every couple of hours if you can and are not sleeping.

I have flown from NY to Tokyo multiple times (which is like 15 hours depending upon weather).

This is a great list.

I wear loose athletic pants for long flights. Not bedtime sweatpants, but Adidas style pants. I wear comfy shoes, that I unlace once I start napping.

I bring a sweatshirt so it becomes a pillow and something to pull over my eyes if it's needed.

I also have a couple of airplane blankets and I bring my own. It comes in handy on flights where we cheap seats people don't get blankets, and in airports when it's nap time. I roll it up tight and strap it on the bottom of my backpack.

I also bring Sudoku puzzles. It's a nice diversion from watching videos the whole way.
