Brief Answer:
Jet lag possible

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Yes, it can be a jet lag. Your symptoms are reported in similar long distance travellers.
It can also be due to dehydration so I recommend consuming a considerable amount of water during the day.

Still, if the symptom persist over the next days, you should also consider scheduling a neurological consult or at least talking to your GP.

Hope this helps. Meantime, please feel free informing me on how the situation evolves. I will be happy to help you.
