Ready For Takeoff - Turn Your Aviation Passion Into A Career

This advice is my opinion only! Goal: avoid being infected, and avoid being placed on No-Fly list! Now more than ever, preparation is key. If you are in the high-risk group (over 65, asthma, heart disease, other underlying disease) don’t fly. Avoid Low Cost Carriers (LCCs) Get vaccinated and take a photo of your vaccination card. Enhance your immunity with zinc lozenges and IGg. Don’t fly if you have a cold. If traveling overseas, check with State Department (www.travel.state.gov). Check with Centers for Disease Control (www.cdc.gov) for latest risk information, including quarantine requirements, at your destination. Consider travel medical insurance policy, including medevac. May be included in your platinum card. Keep all prescriptions with you, not checked bags. Use national pharmacy chain. Conditions changing day by day.
