Health Issue for 1-day segments
Hi!
When I book my LHR-LAX flight, I told the rev. agents all my connection and he asked me whether I (my body?) can handle so many take-off and landing. He doubted it...
LHR-JFK-BOS-ORD-DFW-SFO (one day), -LAX (tomorrow).
Does any report or experience that such trip will do harm to the body? Will this causing temp or permanent damage?
I tried HKG-NRT-SJC-ORD-DTW and no problem. Will this time be a health risk issue?
Thanks!

I don't know what you are getting at...
Doing all that in one day is no different really than doing it over a week or a month or a year, in actuality. Radiation? Is that it?
The worst thing will be simple fatigue, especially if it is in coach. I don't see that as a serious heath issue. Just go to bed for a long long time when you get home.

HK-UMICH, I do not know about take offs and landings, but if you are flying coach and have very tight connections, iwth little "wiggle room" figuratively and literally, I would be concerned about circulation problems.
