Avoiding gas
Although it is refreshing, never ask for soda or other fizzy drinks on a plane. When you drink something carbonated, gas accumulates in your body. Imagine how uncomfortable it is sitting on a long flight when you’re gassy. If you need a sugar boost, we have a better idea.
If you know you’ll need to raise your blood sugar, always have a pack of gum, candy, or chocolate before boarding your flight. You can also ask the flight attendant for coffee to help keep you awake. However you satisfy your sugar craving (even if it is soda), never wait too long before going to the bathroom; trust us, it is much worse.
