Alcohol
The atmosphere in a commercial jet cabin is
pressurized to 8,000 feet above sea level. Less
oxygen is absorbed into the blood and circulated
throughout the body due to a decrease in air
density with increased cruising altitudes that
can reach upwards of 40,000 feet. Any alcohol
you consume will affect you more noticeably at
that altitude and less oxygen environment.
Cabin Air
The cabin air system in today's jetliners is
designed to provide a safe and comfortable cabin
environment. Air supplied into the cabin is at
least 50 per cent fresh air brought in from
outside the aircraft while the balance is mixed
with highly filtered air from the passenger
cabin. The air is conditioned for temperature
and humidity before entering the aircraft cabin.
Cell
Phones, Radios and Laptops
Cell phones, Radios, Laptops and other personal
electronic devices are banned for air-borne use
because its signals could interfere with
critical aircraft navigational system.
(Skyphone facility is available in all major
Airlines.)
