Can you tell me how flying on a plane affect a person with asthma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Generally safer but.: Though planes today are pressurized and well ventilated, asthmatics can have problems. If you are a nervous passenger- this can be a trigger. Allergies and the close quarters of a plane can also be a problem. Check with your physician if he/she thinks you should take precautions before a flight Good Luck.
