<p>Probably the most important (though rarely used) thing I bring on an airplane is a bottle of the nasal spray Afrin. If you start to get congested, are getting a cold (and sometimes you realize it too late), it can prevent sinus blocks and so much pain. Some types, the spray can last for 12 hours, and you need to use it if you have any slight congestion, before the sinus block starts. It is a preventative, not an instant pain reliever. But I’m getting a runny nose, starting to cough, and have to fly all week. I just checked to make sure I do have my Afrin. Must have been too much turkey.</p>
<p>Aloha, I want to have my toiletries with me because I’m going to be travelling for well over 24 hours. Sorry…worth it to have small travel size items with me on the plane.</p>
<p>Dad II…got the international plug thing already! </p>
<p>I’m excited for you, your H, and your D. You seem to have it all covered, so I’ll just wish you a safe, wonderful trip, and please give a report, either here or by PM.</p>
