7 books that will make you smarter in a single plane ride
Flying offers the opportunity to disconnect from the internet - unless you pay for it - and turn your mind off from the constant barrage of phone notifications.
Why not spend that time getting smarter on a topic you've always wanted to learn more about.
With that in mind, Business Insider found seven smart books you can finish over the course of a single plane ride. They are short, visually stimulating, or both. For this list we selected an array of lengths, from a 64-page book that's perfect for your hour-long flight, to a 320-page book that would fit the bill if you fly coast-to-coast.
Below we've listed them in order of length, from shortest to longest.
So grab one, or a few, for your next flight, and get smarter by the time you've deplaned.
