Flying without inhaler may not be an option to someone who is prone to asthma attacks. For the safety of other air passengers, we have a set of rules regarding carry-on items for those traveling with medical conditions such as asthma:
- Make sure the inhaler has a prescription label if at all possible. This is normally done if your inhaler was prescribed by your doctor and prepared by a pharmacist.
- Place the inhaler in a clear plastic “zip bag” along with other 3-oz. liquids such as lotion, mouth wash, etc. Pack the clear plastic bag containing your items into your carry on bag.
- Declare your inhaler with a Flight Security Officer during check-in if your inhaler is larger than 3.4 oz. Anything larger than 3.4 oz. must be placed in a quart-sized bag.
When traveling abroad, consider taking a letter from the doctor that describes your or your loved one diagnosis, medications and equipment. This can help you with airport security. It is also recommended to have the generic names of all medicines, in case they are called something else in another country.
A main benefit of electronic cigarettes is that they can used in places where smoking is banned, like bars, restaurants, offices. But for those who need a regular nicotine fix, the chance to smoke in planes — where stepping outside isn’t an option — is a big problem. You can’t smoke e-cigarettes in airplanes. At least not in planes operated by large American or European carriers. So, the only best solution for smokers in the air is nicotine gum and patches.
Smoking onboard has been illegal on flights for decades. But frequent or “the sharp eyed” passengers may notice a relic from an earlier age on every flight – ashtray in the toilet. So, the question: why is the humble ashtray in the toilet still needed on planes?
Some people with food allergies (often peanut) report that they experience allergy symptoms while travelling in aircraft. The cause may be the free peanut snacks handed round to passengers with their drinks. If people eat these without washing hands afterwards, and then touch things like the tray table, seat belt etc., traces of peanut protein maybe transferred onto these things. Symptoms are usually mild, but can include itchy rash, streaming eyes and wheezing.
