Pro tip:

Fly with a scarf. A thick, wool scarf. 

Why?

To cover up for the coughers. 

Now in the post-Covid world, you can also fly with one of those fancy masks that block people’s germs. 

(I didn’t need to be covering my eye, I was just being dramatic because the guy behind me could not stop coughing.)

Unpopular opinion: Coughers should still have to wear masks on planes.
