I flown long haul in coach a lot and I never had a person seated next to me with so many hacks. I hope all of the hacks worked out as she said they would. My biggest hack for sleeping is to take the strongest form of Nyquil. That usually works pretty good but it can sometimes leave me not ready to sleep at the end time zone.
Maybe the biggest way to not get food born pathogens flying long haul in coach is to pick your airline carefully. I bring my own food or eat at the terminal or eat at home on cross USA flights. There are many Asian airlines that provide very good food on flights across the Pacific.
My hack is to buy business.
