Prolonged flight exposure and its effects on sinonasal health among aircrew members

Over two-thirds of airline crew members may experience sinonasal symptoms after prolonged air travel. Flight attendants with a history of nasal, or ear surgery and those with longer flight durations were more likely to experience sinonasal symptoms. Larger observational studies are required to further clarify the prevalence and contributing factors of sinonasal symptoms among aircrew members.
