Planning on flying in the near future?

Many have put off traveling by air this Summer…but what if you have to?

Mika Manninen is the CEO of a yogurt company called Hälsa Foods and has already flown 33 times during the pandemic.

Even worse…he’s a germaphobe!

Here’s how he does it, according to CNBC:

Multiple layers of latex gloves.  He peels them off as he goes through check-in, after he goes through TSA and whenever he touches anything high-contact like escalator handrails.

Get a paper ticket.  He doesn’t scan his phone at check-in because he’s worried it might get contaminated and then transfer to his hands.

Bring lots of disposable masks.  He changes his mask every four hours and tries not to touch it at all when it’s on his face.

Skip the food court.  He never gets food and if he needs a drink, he’ll wipe down the bottle.

Look for non-crowded bathrooms in the terminal.  He also changes his mask after using one and NEVER uses the  bathroom on the plane.

The one thing he doesn’t worry too much about is the air on the plane because it’s filtered and recirculated every few minutes…but he keeps his mask on, covers as much skin as possible and wipes EVERYTHING down including his seat, window, table and seat belt.  (He even wipes down the buttons and knobs on the ceiling!)

So far…so good!
