Does a fan help? I travel with a 10-inch fan with rechargeable battery which fits in the laptop section of my carry-on backpack. It's not just the planes to and from Europe that are hot. Europe is incredibly hot winter and summer. Public spaces are kept at high temperatures at all times. Trains are kept at about 80 degrees. My fan has seen lots of use. Link below:

All UA INTL birds (as far as I know) have nozzles.

I've found that Lufthansa tends to keep their planes hot, too hot for me. Not TATL, but I've been able to pursued SQ to lower the temp when asked.

That's a huge drawback for the modern cabin layout. It gives a more wide open look to things but the vents are so high and far away from the seat that they're more for decoration than anything.

Really? Did they divert the flight so you could get medical attention?

Sorry. I'd laugh if I saw someone pull out that fan on a flight. It's huge.
