TRAVELER WELL-BEING TIP #1
Why Am I So Bloated (and Gassy!) on a Plane?​

Have you ever been sitting on a plane, excited for your trip, when suddenly—uh oh—your stomach starts acting up? Bloating, cramping, and even unexpected gas (yikes!) can make your flight way less enjoyable.

​If this sounds familiar, don’t worry—you’re not alone! Many travelers experience digestive discomfort in the air, and the culprit might be what you ate before takeoff.

✈️ Why Does This Happen?

When you’re 35,000 feet in the air, the pressure in the cabin changes, which can cause gases in your stomach to expand. If you’ve eaten something heavy, greasy, or carbonated before your flight, your digestive system might struggle to keep up, leading to bloating, discomfort, and… well… unexpected sound effects 💨🙈.

🍔 The Pre-Flight Meal Mistakes

Imagine this: You’re at the airport, feeling hungry, and you order a big, juicy burger with crispy fries and a fizzy soda. Delicious, right? Fast forward to an hour into your flight—you’re clutching your stomach, feeling miserable, and wondering, “Why am I gassy so much?!”

The truth is, certain foods can make flying a digestive nightmare. But don’t worry—there’s a way to prevent this and enjoy a comfortable, bloat-free flight!
