But the company of her daughters and Russell Crowe on the plane - as well as a passionate welcome home kiss from her husband - had clearly kept Nicole Kidman jet-lag free.
Just hours after arriving back in Australia, the 45-year-old actress looked the epitome of fresh-faced glamour as she graced the red carpet at the AACTA Awards.

Stealing the spotlight from the other guests in attendance, Nicole seemed to have taken inspiration from her latest role where she portrays Grace Kelly.

In a recent interview with Italian newspaper La Repubblica, Nicole revealed that she would never botox again or go under the knife.
She said: 'No surgery for me. I did try Botox, unfortunately, but I got out of it and now I can finally move my face again.'
And letting the publication in on how she manages to stay radiant, she continued: 'I am completely natural. I wear sunscreen, I don't smoke and I take care of myself, and I am proud to say that.'

Just hours before Nicole's red carpet appearance she jumped off a plane from LAX with her good friend Russell Crowe and her two daughters Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.
Making their way out of the terminal, Crowe offered Nicole a helping hand with the girls and carried two-year-old Faith in his arms.
The Robin Hood actor, 48, beamed as he pointed out the girls' father Keith Urban before handing them other to the country singer and going his own way.

Once reunited with her other half, Nicole was given the warmest ever welcome by husband Keith who greeted her with a kiss and a hug.
Nicole could tell she had been missed by the American Idol judge who pulled her close and shared the moment with their two daughters.
As Keith, 45, planted a tender kiss on his wife's lips, their children Sunday and Faith held on lovingly to their father's arms.

Keith, who also previously appeared as a judge on The Voice Australia, made no secret of how much he had missed his wife while she has been away in the USA.
Speaking to the Heraldsun.com, he said: 'I was telling Nic before that when we finally got into Sydney, I got to the house, flicked on the TV and I got to see my wife, I got to see what she was wearing.
'I hit pause on one shot and stood there staring at her... and started crying. I hated the fact she was there without me, on her own. Ridiculous, right?'
