Hi all,

I have searched Google but only seem to get random information. I have had a bad cold for a few days now, plus all the other stuff that goes with it: headache, hot/cold flushes, earache (on and off), really runny nose, can't stop sneezing..! and im going to NY Friday morning.

Am I ok to fly with a cold? do I need a decongestant?

Ty

no idea hunni i did not realise u could not travel wth a cold

Your probably best trying to get hold of a doctor to ask, or even a pharmacist.

Yea im going to Boots tomorrow and going to ask the pharmacist.. just thought I could get some advice here to compare it with.

My SIL went Teneriffe with a really bad cold/flu a couple of weeks ago. I don't want to worry you Tilly, but she said it was the worst journey she'd ever had. But she said that it cleared once she got there and she had a great holiday.

Just dose yourself up with as much as you can hun and try and sleep as much as you can on the flight. 24 hours is a long time in the life of a cold, so you should hopefully start feeling a little better tomorrow anyway.
