<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><strong>Weather of Arabia -</strong> Since the plane carries hundreds of passengers within a relatively narrow space, air travel is a suitable environment for germs and microbes, and infection with many diseases that are transmitted through infection.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /> In order for the traveler to protect himself from contracting diseases, he must follow many procedures that can guarantee him a trip free from infection and germs. Therefore, the &quot;Adventure&quot; website listed 5 preventive measures that protect the traveler from contracting diseases, as follows:</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /> <strong>Sterilization of seat cushions and dining table</strong><br /> The dining table and seat cushions represent a fertile environment for germs due to their large number of users, especially since airlines clean them only once a day, and here lies the need to wipe the table and seat cushions with sterile wipes before using them.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /><br /> <strong>Eat snacks</strong><br /> To avoid digestive problems while traveling by plane, it is recommended to eat light meals before the start of the flight, and to avoid heavy meals that lead to indigestion, distress and flatulence.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /><br /> <strong>Excess fluids</strong><br /> The traveler&#39;s body usually needs fluids to avoid dehydration that affects the body due to the air conditioning system and low humidity in the plane. Therefore, the traveler must drink sufficient amounts of water and juices to maintain body moisture.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /> <strong>Hand sanitizing</strong><br /> Hands must be thoroughly washed and sterilized when touching any surface inside the plane, especially after using the plane toilet, which is one of the most germ-containing places on the plane.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /><br /> <strong>Breathing clean air</strong><br /> According to a recent study, airborne germs are among the most common sources of influenza infection on board, and due to the lack of air change, the plane turns into a fertile place for viruses to multiply, hence the need to breathe clean air by directing the ventilation hole to the face.</p>
