The NoJetStress Podcast is a traveler wellbeing podcast for frequent business travelers covering health and peak performance on the road as well as to help business travelers maintain optimal health and avoid burnout no matter how much they travel. Christopher Babayode, a Corporate Travel Wellness Expert shares his insights on Traveler Wellness.

The Aircraft: Place of Least Leverage (POLL)

• Mindset Shift: Once you’re airborne, control is out of your hands—accept and adapt.
• The Cabin as a Desert: Dry air, lower pressure, radiation, and zero control make the cabin a challenging environment.

Hostile Elements at Altitude

• Low Humidity → Rapid dehydration risk
• Low Pressure → Less oxygen, more fatigue
• Radiation Exposure → Increased risk at cruise altitude
• Lack of Control → Unpredictable schedules, cabin noise, and food quality

In-Flight Defensive Strategy

• Focus: What you CAN control—your micro-environment.
• “Defend, hydrate, insulate” is the policy.

Actionable Takeaways

• Hydrate Relentlessly: Bring a 1L water bottle, fill it after security, and aim for 1L per 4 hours in the air. Judge hydration by urine color.
• Protect Your Senses: Use noise-canceling headphones to reduce engine hum; eye mask to block light and preserve melatonin (and quality rest).
• Ditch Diuretics: Avoid coffee, sodas, and alcohol—choose water at every opportunity.
