oneworld offers Timeshifter to combat jet lag

oneworld now offers a free Timeshifter subscription for Round the World trips booked on oneworld.com. The goal: accelerate adjustment to new time zones with personalized programs based on circadian rhythm science.

A partnership to sleep better while traveling

oneworld has partnered with Timeshifter — the world’s most downloaded anti-jet-lag app, claiming more than 1.7 million users — to offer a free subscription to customers who purchase a Round the World trip on oneworld.com. The subscription covers the entire itinerary, taking into account every flight and time-zone change, from departure to return.

Timeshifter helps travelers make the most of each new destination by promoting better sleep and faster adaptation to new time zones

Timeshifter generates personalized plans based on circadian research: amount and timing of light exposure, sleep and nap times, recommendations on caffeine and, where appropriate, melatonin.

The tool is used by astronauts, Formula 1 teams and professional athletes, Timeshifter notes.

Context and scope

• Announcement made at the oneworld Loyalty Summit (press release dated 9 September 2026).
• oneworld comprises 15 airlines and nearly 1,000 destinations; Round the World trips average seven legs over about three months.

For travelers wanting to better manage jet lag, this offer combines a proven technological solution and the coverage of a global airline network, particularly welcome in the context of a record increase in global air traffic.

Our take

Making a Timeshifter subscription available for Round the World tickets is a pragmatic response to a common issue in international travel. By relying on circadian science, oneworld improves the customer experience on an often-overlooked aspect: adapting to time-zone changes.

It remains to be seen whether passengers will actually follow the hour-by-hour recommendations, a necessary condition for the tool’s effectiveness.
