För nötallergiker är det mycket ovanligt att luftcirkulationen ger allergisk reaktion, den filtreras genom HEPA-filter som tar bort i princip allt. Det är stolen och närmaste grannar som kan ge problem.

Day of Your Flight
The day of your flight
1. WEAR medical identification (e.g. a Medic Alert bracelet or necklace) indicating your allergies.
2. If required and possible, ASK the gate agent to let you pre-board the plane in order to inspect/clean your seating area. Use alcohol wipes (not just hand santizers) to wipe down the seat and tray table to help prevent contact reactions or inadvertent skin contact with food particles or spills. Eating food off a contaminated surface area could lead to accidental ingestion of allergens through contamination.
3. PACK your own food instead of eating airline food. However, you should check with the airline to see if there are any restrictions as to which types of food you are allowed to bring on board.
4. KEEP your adrenaline/epinephrine with you; do not put in packed luggage or store in the overhead locker. Let others you are traveling with know about your allergies and where your auto-injector is so they know what to do in case of emergency during the flight. If travelling alone, inform the flight attendant.
5. Consider INFORMING passengers sitting in your area about your food allergy. Keep in mind, however, that the airline will probably not make an announcement to the other passengers, and that passengers can eat food they have brought onto the aircraft.
6. AVOID using the airline’s pillows and blankets, as they are often not washed between flights, only rewrapped. Carry your own if possible.
7. If you have an allergic reaction INFORM the flight crew immediately. Follow instructions on your emergency response plan and ask if there is a doctor (or medical professional) onboard to assist you.
8. TREAT the flight crew with respect. They are there to help you and we need to help educate them without making unrealistic or unnecessary demands.
9. NEVER take an unnecessary risk, especially when in the air away from access to medical help.

Booking your Flight - Anaphylaxis campaign
Booking your Flight
When booking your flight
1. READ the airline’s allergy policy. Many airlines post their policy on their website. Then speak to the airline customer service desk about their policy for food allergic passengers so you fully understand what you need to travel and what they expect of you (e.g., your own medication, a doctor’s letter etc.).
2. If peanut or tree nut allergic, CHOOSE an airline that does not sell or serve complimentary peanut/nut snacks with the beverage service if possible. This will decrease the risk of exposure to peanuts/nuts during the flight. Please note, you should not ask an airline to guarantee you a “peanut-free or nut free flight” flight. No airline will ever give you such a guarantee.
3. PICK your time of travel – airplanes are usually cleaned overnight, lowering the chance of contaminated surfaces. If nut allergic flying first thing in the morning is probably a good idea but if egg and milk allergic a flight outside of breakfast hours may be a more suitable option.
4. NOTIFY the reservation agent of your food allergy, and ask if your information can be forwarded to the flight crew.
5. ARRANGE for a letter from your doctor confirming your food allergy and indicating you need to carry your medication and food/drinks with you. Some countries have a Travel Plan for this purpose.
6. ENSURE your adrenaline/epinephrine is in its original packaging and is labelled by your pharmacy with your name. Have your emergency response plan with your medication and easily accessible at all times. Carry at least two auto injectors when travelling, especially when flying.
7. A child with food allergy should never travel unaccompanied by an adult who can assume their care.
Peanut Snacks - Anaphylaxis campaign
Peanut Snacks
Peanut snacks
Some people with peanut allergy report that they experience symptoms when peanut snacks are handed around to passengers with their drinks. The most likely cause of these reactions is skin contact. If you touch a fold-down tray, or some other surface, that has previously been touched by a passenger eating peanuts you could have a reaction. To minimise the risk, you could carry “wet wipes” to clean surfaces as soon as you get on the plane.
Reactions caused by inhalation of peanut dust are thought to be less likely, but may sometimes occur – particularly if you are extremely allergic and the passengers sitting near you are eating peanuts. Be guided by your doctor or consultant, and your allergy history. If you know you are at the high end of the risk scale (for example, you have reacted by inhaling peanut allergen in the past) then it would be sensible to contact the airline well in advance to request that peanuts are not distributed on your flight.
You should be guided by your doctor or consultant, and your allergy history. If you know you are at the high end of the risk scale (for example, you have reacted by inhaling peanut allergen in the past) then it would be sensible to seek a flight that doesn't sell or serve peanuts by contacting the airline well in advance.
The response of the airlines
Some airlines have removed peanut snacks altogether from certain classes of flight. Others will withdraw them from specified flights if they are contacted well in advance. Others will not withdraw them under any circumstances. If possible, contact the airline you plan to fly with well in advance and find out their policy. If you succeed in booking a “peanut friendly” flight, seek confirmation when you check in.
British Airways and Virgin Atlantic are among those airlines that have removed peanut snacks from certain classes of flight but check that this is still their policy.

Pa en SAS flight jag akte for kanske ett ar sedan annonserade de om att inte oppna jordnotter, de saljer ju inga sa om man inte har med sig ar det ju inga problem. Daremot skulle man ju kunna oppna en pase om man hade en med sig om man sitter och lyssnar pa musik nar de meddelar det hela, sa helt sakert ar det ju inte.
Men som en sidopunkt sa skulle jag egentligen kunna krava att alla tvattar av sig sin parfym och inte ater applen pa planet da jag ar allergisk mot vissa parfymer och mot applen som ats i min narhet. Jag far dock bara en valdigt irriterad hud samt kliande i munnen sa jag star ut om det hander, men var drar man gransen? Jag forstar jordnotsallergikerna men det finns ju manga fler som lider av lika allergier......

Det enda bolag jag flugit med i modern tid som serverade jordnötter var faktiskt Aegean.
Jag har förståelse och respekt för de allergiker som vill ha en jordnötsfri flygning och tycker att det är en rimlig uppoffring. Givetvis blir det en glidande skala hur långt man ska gå, och i andra ändan av skalan kanske man hittar den här gamla tråden?
