Thanks to the amazing response to our Flying foods piece, we present to you the flying foods that you want to Avoid. Some of these are obvious but if you are heading out on a long-haul. You may want to avoid this even up to 3 days before flying.

Gas Inducers

Forget the people around you. Flying with gas is uncomfortable for all and sundry. Flights have the effect of causing excess gas for some people. Avoid onions, cauliflower, cabbage and baked beans. So plan to leave that slaw or kraut out of whatever it is that you may be eating before the flight.

Alcohol

Unless you are a fan of headaches you would want to avoid having alcohol in your system when you fly. If you find that a shot calms you and has no ill-effects then it may be ok. But you definitely do not want to board a flight after a heavy night of drinking, the experienced will tell you that it is not fun.

Greasy and Oily Foods

Your nutritionist will tell you that you want to avoid this at all times. Before you fly though you want to avoid these foods like the plague. These foods will play with your stomach and your digestive like a medieval storm on the high seas. You will feel sick and you may even be sick.

What is the best thing to do?

It has since been proven that flying private jets may be better for you in that you avoid the sick feeling. This is because the cabin pressure on private jets can be set to a standard that is more akin to the air that we breathe on the ground.
