- Understand that if up until this point you have yet to encounter this situation it is highly unlikely you will. Despite the impressions on this thread/FlyerTalk in general, animals, including ESAs, are relatively rare.

I’m up to nearly a million miles BIS in United and I have yet to see a cat that I can recall.
And if antihistamines are not enough bring a face mask.

Crab grass does unpleasant things to me, but if I use one of the stick-on masks I can take the weed eater and clear it all out, no problem. Note that the elastic-band masks do not protect me in that situation.

Unfortunately, the stick-on masks are single use only. Once you peel them off they're not going to stick too well.
