Bacteria Humidor
That’s my description of the modern commercial airliner. I was set to begin the glacial process of returning to running fitness when I got slapped down by a nasty flu. Surely it has nothing to do with being crammed into that aircraft for five hours.
I’m no germophobe, but the next time I have to fly I’m covering myself in Saran wrap.



I’ve taken 5 round-trip flights in the last 3 1/2 months and haven’t gotten sick once! I never have from flying, either. Maybe I’m Wolverine?
I think a lot of it has to do with dehydration, which happens more readily while flying. Stay up with your fluids and avoid that crappy food court food. They’re steps in the right direction.
