Airplane
travel has been accepted as a common transportation in
today’s modern society.
While air travel offers the advantage of speed in
getting to your desired destination, it also has its
trade offs. The
low pressure, sealed cabin environment, lack of fresh
air, and confined seating space can all contribute in
making you ill. Below
are some tips to help you while traveling on the plane.
- Frequent
swallowing and using earphones can decrease the
uncomfortable feeling caused by low pressure.
- Taking
off your shoes and move about the cabin frequently
increase circulation in your legs.
- Washing
your hands and drinking more water decreases the
chance of being infected by germs.
