Travel tip (credit Dave asprey): If you have any sort of congestion prior to a flight, pop 600-800mg if guaifenesin (mucinex) 45 mins before a flying. fixes the sinus pressure from flying sick

You can also use flonase about 10 mins prior. Or just on the descent, that's really where the problem happens. But, my doctor has told me plenty of times if your congestion is in your ears it's not worth the risk of flying and ending up with a ear drum that bursts

Add in 60mg sudafed and you’re all set

I’ve done this ... if you go this route, hydrate like crazy and hope you don’t need to fall asleep anytime soon.

Just used a meaningful amount of AMEX points for the first time to buy flights to Greece for my wife and I. Emirates business class both ways for 2 people, 290k pts total or 145k each way for 2 tickets. Plus another 30k to get us round trip domestic connecting flights bringing the total to 320 points. This is on the 777 which isn’t the best business class product out there, but I’ve never flown international outside of coach and think it will still be worthwhile. Think this is an OK redemption?
