Oh yes I used to get sick on airplanes. Upper respiratory infection whenever I fly. Way before the pandemic my Dr told me to clean/sanitize my area and put bacitracin or A&D ointment in my nostrils or wear a mask. When I get off the airplane I would clean My nostrils with tissue or a wet wipe. Trust me I’ve never been sick 😷 when traveling since. Oh I’ve made the mistake a few times forgetting to clean/sanitize my area and I’ve gotten sick so now I don’t forget. Even for a 2 hour flight.

Bose headphones changed my flying life! If you are a nervous flyer do yourself a favor and get a pair. I will have to check out the AirFly since it is the only essential I don't have in my carry-on bag 😊

I also make an inflight amenity kit: socks, pen/notepad, eye mask, iPad mini or Kindle Paperwhite, gum, earbuds, comb, tiny toothpaste-coated toothbrush, essential medications, drivers license or passport if it is an international flight, tiny powerful power bank/cord, earplugs, chapstick, Clorox wipes in a baggie. I add or subtract items depending on the length of the flight. And don’t forget the pen. And I have a bag that will hold it all, and it rides with me in the seat back pocket.

I was on a flight to South Africa years ago, and we had to make an emergency landing in a country that didn't look too kindly on foreign travellers. We couldn't disembark and the pilots were forced to cut all power. We were stuck on the plane for close to 10 hours. The crew couldn't provide meals only beverages. I'll never get on a plane again without something to eat. Especially long haul flights.
@akneemoose33832 жыл бұрын
If you couldn’t get off the plane….etc….where do you think the food was going to come from? I spent 16 hours on a flight and we missed customs by a few minutes. They knew we were there but didn’t care until one of our crew had a international phone and called America to tell them our situation. We would pull a rabbit out of a hat to not be in a situation like that. And your crew were unprofessional…..we can always find something for people to munch on…just not the hot food you wanted. And besides do you think the pilots want to be sitting in a locked cockpit?
@keri-leegriffiths51162 жыл бұрын
@@akneemoose3383 I give the crew the benefit of the doubt. It was an extreme situation & we (crew included) were feeling the stress. The plane was surrounded by military vehicles, guns, & tanks aimed & ready to fire. Plus a deceased person onboard. It was pretty insane. There was a lot going on & they did the best they could. In no way were we expecting anything except maybe water if thats all they could manage. I learnt to be a little better prepared on flights is all.

Our regional airport has flights to DFW and as of February, to HTX, so I usually opt for the first flight out. I can't sleep because I'm afraid to miss a flight, but it works out because i can wear something cute and look nice. I love comfy clothes, but its so nice to arrive and look nice like in the 50s and 60s. Even in your travel videos, I always find something I need to purchase for everyday use!

I have disinfected my plane seat, tray table, headphones and dials for as long as I can remember… and strangers would always look at me weirdly at I performed my ‘travel ritual’. Mind you, by the time I was done cleaning (while simultaneously listing all of the things you could catch, as well as how often each airline cleaned their planes), they’d be asking for any spare wipes and sanitiser lol! My family loved to tease me about it, right up until the pandemic hit… haha I guess now I don’t look so paranoid :)
