Thanks Dan for all the great travel tips. But please mention the most dirty thing you can touch or put your mouth against while traveling – the well used, and coughed on, telephone! I always carry something with me to spray that germ loaded thing with before making a call on it! Can you imagine what’s growing there after a couple of days, weeks, years, decades, etc.? Even your home telephones should be cleaned of flu bugs periodically, and they’re family!

I use these wipes in my hotel room as well: remote control (which now I know I shouldn’t use anyway , door knobs, light switches, drape rods (that you use to open & close), and (last) the toilet flusher.

Dan,

What did you say you have in your nose? I rewound it like 10 times to listen and can’t figure out what you are saying there. Thanks!

How about purchasing an inexpensive gas mask, or a vacuumed sealed body suit?

I love your small video snippets. The right dose of edutainment for in-between.

Putting back the tray table in an upright position will invalidate all your previous cleaning efforts. This is as the table touches the back of the seat in front of you.
