In this case, I wouldn't bother with a YF shot, as I rate the chances of catching YF on a plane with a/c runnning are pretty low - and, arguably, lower than the chances of even having a mild reaction to the live vaccine.

I had flu-like symptoms from the shot when I received it and felt like crap for about a week or ten days.
