Self-contained chapters of interesting non-fiction, for instance, might be of interest.
If so try What the dog saw by Malcolm Gladwell. Entertaining light reading on a variety of topics so you can skip over the ones
of that you have little interest in.
If you have read you could that try Damn interesting. Either buy the book or just download the free articles from the web page for offline reading.
For a very fun book without too much complexity try Good Omens by Pratchett and Gaiman.
George R.R Martin has written a few short stories set in the Game of thrones world. Not as advanced as the main books
but well worth a read.These are mainly published in collections containing other accomplished authors so you may find other things you like.
If you can have no problems following a complex even on a plane and want something more substantial try the main Game of thrones books.
You won't finish one in one flight though.
