Air Travel Health
Tips
By
Sandra Grinnell
1. DRINK PLENTY OF
WATER: Cabin air is
drier than a desert.
Drink water or hot tea
and stay away from
fluids that will
dehydrate you, such as
coffee, soda and
alcohol. If you are
going to indulge, drink
extra water to
compensate.
2. TAKE VITAMINS OR
HERBAL SUPPLEMENTS:
These can’t hurt and
there are plenty of
travelers who swear by
large doses of Vitamin
C, zinc, lozenges or
products such as
“Airborne”.
3. GET PLENTY OF
REST: Get some sleep
before your flight and
try to avoid sleeping on
the plane if it arrives
at your destination
during the day or into
the evening. This should
allow you to sleep at
your destination.
However, if your flight
lands in the morning,
try to get some sleep on
board so that when you
do arrive, you can stay
awake until dark and
resume a normal sleep
cycle.
4. AVOID THE GERMS:
Airports and airplane
cabins are probably the
most crowded spaces you
will ever find yourself
in. Limit contact with
your fellow passengers,
and flying First Class
is the best way to put
room between you and a
fellow passenger. Other
suggestions would be to
carry the disinfectant
wipes and hand
sanitizers that are
available, and at the
risk of appearing
phobic, you could wipe
down your tray table,
seat belt and arm rests
when you get seated. If
you are really serious,
you could wear a face
mask or a handkerchief
over your nose and mouth
to further block the
spread of germs from
fellow passengers.
Follow these few
steps and you might just
end up to a healthier
tourist or world
traveler than your
travelling companions.
