I’m working from home today, sniffling, coughing and feeling generally miserable. The culprit? Business travel. Francis and I went to Calgary earlier this week for several meetings and to attend a forum on business and sustainability. Unfortunately, as soon as I got back, I started feeling under the weather. Turns out I’m not the only one that seems to always get a cold after flying, according to this article from the Independent Traveler.
Looking at the author’s suggestions, I did everything short of wearing the face mask and I still got sick! Ugh. For those business people that have to travel frequently as part of their work, I wonder if you have any tips you can share on how you avoid the dreaded airplane cold. It’s too late for me, but maybe others can learn from your suggestions and avoid my fate. That’s all for me for today as tea and a warm blanket are beckoning.
