Though I did a flight in mid 2020 and I'd inhale, move mask, take bite/sip, exhale while putting mask back, and then breathe normally through mask. Was probably a bit unnecessary when the flights were basically empty, but reduced-risk eating/drinking is possible.
- jeffbee 3y agoI noticed something similar: no nosebleeds. I have only taken a few flights in the last several years though and I can't rule out that maybe the 737 MAX has a more humid interior atmosphere or something like that. But before I started wearing masks on airplanes I used to shoot saline spray up my nostrils every hour to keep the nosebleeds away.

- Scoundreller 3y agoYeah, it’s up there with water is wet. Ever wonder why your shoulders don’t get dry in winter but your face does?
